Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 2008, publiée 98ème session CIT (2009)

The Committee notes that the Government’s report replying to its 2007 observation has been received. It also notes the comments made by the General Confederation of Labour (CGT) referring, inter alia, to certain practical difficulties concerning the compensation of industrial accidents affecting workers in the construction sector without labour contracts. Since the Government’s response to these comments has not yet reached the Office, the Committee has decided to examine all the questions raised with respect to the application of Convention No. 17 at its next session. The Committee therefore asks the Government to supply all information relevant in this regard.

[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2009.]
