Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2007, publiée 97ème session CIT (2008)

Referring also to its observation, the Committee notes the Government’s concise report containing partial information in reply to its repeated previous comments concerning the application of Articles 14, 20 and 21 of the Convention and the documents attached thereto. It notes with interest that the Government sent Directive No. 5 of 1427 (2006), under which employers are required to communicate to the geographically competent employment offices quarterly statistics relating to industrial accidents and also, within 48 hours, to notify them of industrial accidents causing the death or disability of workers. The Committee notes that employers are also required to keep a register of accidents and cases of occupational disease, labour inspectors being responsible for a quarterly inspection of this register. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would send a copy of extracts from such registers, supply information on industrial accidents and cases of occupational disease disaggregated by the different branches of activity covered by the inspection system and indicate the follow-up action taken with regard to the information on industrial accidents and occupational diseases with a view to undertaking activities to establish a culture of prevention in high-risk establishments.
