Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2008, Publicación: 98ª reunión CIT (2009)

With reference to its previous comments related to the payment of employment injury pensions abroad, the Committee notes that, in its last report, the Government refers to the European Regulations 14078/71/EEC and 574/72/EEC (for the EU Member States and Switzerland, Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein) as well as to the existence of two bilateral social security agreements, respectively with Ukraine and the Russian Federation. It also notes the statistical information concerning the pensions paid over the reporting period to victims of industrial accidents or to their dependants in case of residence in these countries. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate in its next report the manner in which the transfer of employment injury pensions abroad is regulated in case of residence of the beneficiary in any other country party to the present Convention (currently 121 States).
