The Committee takes note of the observations of the Confederation of Workers Rerum Novarum (CTRN) received on 2 September 2015. The Committee requests the Government to send its comments thereon.

The Committee also notes the Government’s reply to the CTRN’s previous observations of 30 August 2012.

Articles 15(1)(a) and 21 of the Convention. In its 2012 observations the CTRN said that inspection visits in the sector needed to be better planned so that visits to farms with seasonal production coincided with sowing and harvesting periods, when workers are present. The CTRN emphasized the need to provide labour inspectors whose work takes them to farms with basic tools such as boots, gloves and masks. The Committee notes that the Government has sent no comments on these allegations. The Committee requests the Government to take the necessary measures to ensure that inspection offices are equipped with the tools and accessories that labour inspectors need to perform their duties in the agricultural sector. It also asks the Government to take the necessary steps to ensure that inspection visits to undertakings with seasonal production are scheduled during sowing and harvesting periods.
