Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1995, Publicación: 83ª reunión CIT (1996)

The Committee takes note of the information supplied by the Government in its first report.

The Committee notes that the dismantling of plant out-patient clinics has occurred for the past two years, that plant doctors are increasingly becoming "personal doctors" or general doctors and that workers' health care is undergoing a substantial transformation. The Committee also notes that the draft proposal for the Law on Safety at Work is under discussion and that it is expected to appoint a Government Board for Workers' Health Care and Occupational Safety which would analyse reports on the topic from the country and, on the basis of this, formulate a policy on occupational safety. Certain provisions of the national legislation would then be revised in order to bring them into conformity with the provisions of the Convention. The Committee hopes that the new laws and regulations as well as necessary amendments to the legislation in force giving effect to the Convention will be adopted soon. The Committee requests the Government to continue to supply information on any progress made in this respect and to provide copies of new texts as soon as they are adopted.
