Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2010, Publicación: 100ª reunión CIT (2011)

Implementation of a national policy. The Committee notes the Government’s report received in August 2010, which contains some general indications on the implementation of Law No. 39 of 1975, as amended by Law No. 49 of 1982. The Committee also notes that the Ministry of Manpower and Migration adopted the principle of “a normal life is the right of every person with disabilities” in order to achieve equality of opportunity and treatment. A specialized training programme for employees in the Ministry units working in the area of the employment of persons with disabilities was established. The Committee invites the Government to supply information on the results achieved by the national policy on vocational rehabilitation and employment of persons with disabilities in terms of their integration into the open labour market (Articles 2 and 3 of the Convention). It also requests the Government to provide information on the practical application of the Convention, including statistics (disaggregated, as much as possible, by age, sex and the nature of the disability), extracts from reports, studies and enquiries, concerning the matters covered by the Convention (Part V of the report form).
