Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 1990, Publicación: 77ª reunión CIT (1990)

The Committee notes with interest the adoption of Act No. 88-07 of 26 January 1988 respecting occupational medicine, health and safety. It notes that this Act, which applies to all workers, is intended to establish the general framework for the prevention of occupational risks, but that it does not contain specific provisions that are applicable to port work and which apply the Convention.

In this connection, the Committee notes that, in its report, the Government reiterates its previous statements that texts applying the above Act will strengthen health and safety measures in port work. In view of the fact that the absence of a text to give effect to the Convention has been the subject of its comments for some years, the Committee trusts that the necessary texts to apply the Act will be adopted in the near future and that the Government will supply copies of them.
