Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2002, publiée 91ème session CIT (2003)

The Committee notes the Government’s report and the general report on the activities of the Advisory Labour Commission responsible for examining the draft Decree issuing the regulations under each section of the Labour Code.

The Committee notes that the International Labour Office’s technical assistance has been requested for the revision of the regulations to the Labour Code.

With a view to assessing the application by the national legislation of the provisions of the Convention, the Committee requests the Government to provide the International Labour Office with a copy of the draft Decree issuing the regulations under the Labour Code once it has become law.

The Committee notes that the available legislation does not include specific measures relating to air pollution, noise and vibration. It requests the Government to adopt such measures rapidly with a view to giving effect to the provisions of the Convention.

The Committee notes that, in the version of the Labour Code that it has available, there is a problem in the numbering of the sections, with the result that the penalties envisaged in certain sections do not correspond to the contraventions which should be set out in other provisions of the Code. It therefore draws the Government’s attention to this problem, which is undoubtedly due to the revision process, and requests it to provide explanations relating to the numbering of the sections of the Labour Code, particularly with regard to the penalties envisaged in the event of contraventions.
