Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2002, Publicación: 91ª reunión CIT (2003)

1. In its previous comments, the Committee noted the adoption in 1996 of provisional Regulations on insurance against industrial injuries intended to reform and improve the former system of accident compensation. These Regulations, which were indicated as being appended to the Government’s report, have not been received by the Office. The Committee once again requests the Government to provide a copy.

2. Part V of the report form. The Committee notes that in its report provided in 1996, the Government indicated that 180,000 foreign nationals worked in China and no cases of employment accidents had been recorded in their case. In its last report, the Government merely states that the number of foreign nationals working in China at the end of 2000 was 65,000. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would continue to provide statistics on the number and nationality of foreign nationals working in China, on the number of accidents involving these workers and, where appropriate, the amount and nature of the compensation paid to them. Please also provide information, in accordance with Part V of the report form, on the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice and on the conclusion of any arrangements referred to in Article 1, paragraph 2, of the Convention.
