New schedule of occupational diseases. The Committee notes with interest the adoption of Order No. 160-14 of 21 January 2014 amending and supplementing Order No. 919-99 of 23 December 1999 on occupational diseases which, according to the Government’s report, has resulted in the legislative provisions respecting employment accidents being extended to occupational diseases, the legislation being brought into conformity with international labour standards through the classification of occupational diseases by family of causal agents and the broadening of the schedule of tables of recognized occupational diseases. The Committee observes, however, that in the new schedule, only the lists of the principal types of work likely to cause the listed diseases are indicative, while the designation of the diseases themselves appears to be of a limitative nature. The Committee would be grateful to be informed whether a disease that is not explicitly contained in the Moroccan schedule of occupational diseases could nevertheless be qualified as an occupational disease if it is caused by one of the substances listed in the Convention (such as mercury, lead, arsenic and phosphorus).
