Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 1995, publiée 83ème session CIT (1996)

The Committee has noted the information supplied by the Government in its report.

In previous observations, the Committee noted that Act No. 2/86 of 5 April 1986 enacting the Labour Code repealed previous legislation which barred the employment of women on underground work but its section 155 provided that supplementary legislation will establish the circumstances or banning of their employment on such work as well as on other work liable to prejudice women's genetic function.

The Committee notes that according to the Government's report, no progress has yet been achieved in harmonizing legislation with the Convention. It hopes that the necessary measures will be taken by the Government, in accordance with its obligations arising from ratification of the Convention. It requests the Government to communicate information on any new measure in this respect.
