Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1992, Publicación: 79ª reunión CIT (1992)

The Committee notes with regret that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the following matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee would in particular appreciate receiving information on the measures taken or envisaged to prohibit the employment of children under the age of 15 years in industrial undertakings, in conformity with Article 2, paragraph 1, of the Convention. The Committee recalls that on the last occasion it addressed a request directly to the Government, it requested the Government to indicate the measures taken or envisaged to ensure that the work of children in family undertakings may only be authorised in employment, which by its nature and conditions in which it is carried on, is not dangerous to the life, health or morals of the persons concerned, as provided for in Article 2, paragraph 2. In addition, the Committee asked the Government to inform it whether measures have been taken or are under consideration to limit the exemption from the prohibition of employment of children for training only to technical schools, as required by Article 3. Finally, the Committee asked whether the necessary measures have been taken to ensure that every employer in an industrial undertaking shall keep a register of all employed persons under the age of 18 years indicating their date of birth (Article 4).
