Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 1994, Publicación: 81ª reunión CIT (1994)

Article 16, paragraph 3, of the Convention. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes that the amendment to section 248 of the Act to organize agricultural relations, that the Government said was envisaged in order to provide for the notification not only of the employer or his representative of an inspector's presence at the workplace, but also the workers or their representatives, has not been adopted. It trusts the necessary measures will be taken to permit the adoption of this amendment and ensure compliance with this Article of the Convention.

Articles 26 and 27. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes that the annual report of the inspection services for 1989 has been received but that it does not contain information required by Article 27, paragraph (a), (laws and regulations relevant to the work of labour inspection in agriculture), paragraph (c) (statistics of agricultural undertakings liable to inspection and the number of persons working therein), and paragraph (g) (statistics of occupational diseases, including their causes). The Committee wishes to reiterate the importance it attaches to the publication of such annual reports within the time required by Article 26 and containing all the information required by Article 27 and in particular those referred to in paragraphs (a), (c) and (g) of this Article, to enable it to ensure the full implementation of the Convention. It trusts the necessary measures will soon be taken in this respect.
