Extension of the list of occupational diseases. The Committee notes the adoption of Decree No. 49/2014 concerning occupational diseases, which incorporates additions to the list of occupational diseases provided for in section 6 of Act No. 24557 of 13 September 1995, concerning occupational risks. The Committee observes that the Confederation of Workers of Argentina (CTA Workers) points out that a large number of pathological conditions which are work related and recognized as such in Argentine labour legislation are still not on the list, as a result of which the obligation lies with the workers to prove the occupational origin of their disease. While welcoming the adoption of Decree No. 49/2014, the Committee requests the Government to send its comments on the observations made by the CTA Workers.

Article 9. Free medical and surgical assistance. The Committee again requests the Government to indicate whether surgical assistance is provided free of charge and, if so, under which provision of the legislation.
