Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report received on 21 September 2009.

Articles 9(1), 10 and 11 of the Convention. The Committee notes with interest that the statistics of hours actually worked (Article 11) are now available from the Labour Force Survey, and that the production of the “Working Hours Accounts” has been finalized. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide to the ILO the relevant available series for publication in the Yearbook of Labour Statistics.

With regard to Article 9(2), the Committee draws the attention of the Government to the new international standards concerning the measurement of working time (see Resolution I, adopted by the 18th International Conference of Labour Statisticians, whose larger number of concepts and measures would seem to be better aligned to national practice, accessible via www.ilo.org/global/
What_we_do/Statistics/standards/resolutions/lang--en/docName--WCMS_112455/index.htm).

Article 14. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide regular and up to date statistics on occupational injuries, for publication in the ILO Yearbook of Labour Statistics and on LABORSTA.
