Article 7(b) of the Convention. Extension of the functions of the system of labour administration to self-employed persons. The Committee notes the Government’s statement that the need to extend the functions of labour administration to workers enumerated in Article 7 of the Convention is currently being considered by the authorities and legislators, in consultation with the social partners. In this regard, the Government indicates that self-employed persons in the country are, to a large extent, subject to the same health and safety rules as employees, including with regard to rules on performance of the work, technical equipment, substances and materials. The Government also indicates that it has introduced a maternity equalization scheme for self-employed persons to provide these workers with improved income compensation during maternity and parental leave. The Committee requests the Government to continue to provide information on measures taken or envisaged for the extension of labour administration activities to self-employed workers and workers in the informal economy.

Application of the Convention in practice. The Committee notes the information in the Government’s report concerning the operation of the Danish Working Environment Authority and the Danish Agency for Labour Market and Recruitment, under the Ministry of Employment, as well as the role played by the social partners through employment councils at the local, regional and national levels. It also notes the reports of the National Labour Market Authority and of the National Employment Council of 2013, submitted with the Government’s report. The Committee asks that the Government continue to provide up-to-date information on the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice, and to supply extracts of the reports of the principal institutions of the labour administration system.
