Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1999, Publicación: 88ª reunión CIT (2000)

With reference also to its observation, the Committee requests the Government to indicate in its next report whether, as provided for by Article 8 of the Convention, special duties are assigned to men and women inspectors. It further requests the Government to keep the Office informed of the conclusions of the studies, announced in the report, on the promotion of occupational safety and health, and to supply information on the measures taken to improve the system of registration and notification of occupational diseases so as to respect the provisions of Article 14.

Recalling that Article 20, paragraph 2, specifies the publication of annual reports, the Committee stresses that the aim of this provision is to allow the parties concerned to take note of the information in the annual inspection reports, and possibly to make proposals on the subjects covered. It would be grateful if the Government would specify whether these reports, of which a copy is communicated to the ILO, are published in compliance with the provision mentioned above; if not, the Government is requested to take the steps necessary in this respect and to keep the ILO informed.
