Article 7 of the Convention. Statistical information. Application of the Convention in practice. The Committee notes with satisfaction the Government’s indication that a system for the collection of statistical information has been established further to the adoption of a model statistical report covering the four components of decent work namely employment, core labour standards, social protection and social dialogue. This model enables labour inspectors to send collected data to the Directorate of Labour Statistics and Studies, which compiles and utilizes them. It also notes that the established mechanism allows the employer, worker or staff representative to notify the labour administration of any industrial accidents or cases of occupational disease. According to the Government’s report, no cases of lead poisoning have been reported to the labour inspectorate or Social Security Fund, which is the institution responsible for recording occupational diseases and dealing with compensation for them. The Committee requests the Government to continue to supply statistical information relating to the application of the Convention in practice. It also requests the Government to supply, if available, relevant extracts from the reports of the inspection services.
