The Committee notes that in its brief report, the Government indicates that pursuant to the Law on Occupational Safety and Health (OSH), every employer has the obligation to draft and implement a safety statement specifying the measures to be undertaken with regard to OSH. The Government also refers to section 4(1) of the Rulebook on the Minimum Health and Safety Requirements Regarding the Exposure of Workers to Chemical Substances (Official Gazette of the Republic of Macedonia No. 46/10) (hereinafter “the Rulebook”), which states that the binding limit values for professional exposure are provided for in Annex No. 1 and are fully implemented and monitored by inspection services. Once again recalling that, under article 22 of the ILO Constitution, the Government is required to submit regular reports on the measures which it has taken to give effect to the provisions of the Conventions to which it is a party, the Committee requests the Government to provide detailed information on the effect given to each Article of the Convention, in law and in practice, including specific references to the relevant provisions of the abovementioned Rulebook.
