Article 6(1) and (3) of the Convention. Additional functions entrusted to labour inspectors in agriculture. The Committee notes from the Government’s indications and the statistics provided in its report that labour inspections have continued to focus on combating undeclared work, especially as regards non EU workers in an irregular situation, including in the agricultural sector. It notes that in 2013, during extraordinary operations by the Directorate General for Inspection Services and the Carabinieri Command for Labour Protection in the agricultural sector, 5,652 workplaces were inspected, during which 768 workers in an irregular situation were detected, including 70 workers in an irregular situation from the point of view of their residence status. Referring to its observations under Article 3(1) and (2) of the Labour Inspection Convention, 1947 (No. 81), the Committee requests the Government to provide the information requested in this regard, in so far as they specifically concern the activities of the labour inspection services in agriculture.

The Committee is raising other matters in a request addressed directly to the Government.
