Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1987, publiée 74ème session CIT (1987)

Article 1, paragraph 1 of the Convention. In its previous comments, the Committee had noted that the 1984 Labour Code did not appear to cover apprentices or children and young persons working either on their own account, in itinerant trading or in any other occupation carried on in the streets or in a public place (for the latter, Article 7, paragraph 2, moreover refers to measures of identification). In its last report, the Government provides no information on these questions. The Committee requests the Government to indicate the measures which exist or which are envisaged in order to apply the provisions of the Convention to apprentices as well as to the above-mentioned children and young persons.

The Committee had also noted that the Labour Code excluded from its scope persons appointed to a permanent job in the public administration. It again requests the Government to indicate if special measures are foreseen to apply the provisions of the Convention to young persons belonging to this category of workers.

Article 3, paragraphs 1, 2, and 3, Articles 4 and 6. See under Convention No. 77, as follows:

The Committee has noted the information communicated by the Government in its report in response to its earlier comments. The Government has indicated, in particular, that in collaboration with a consultant of the International Labour Office, it is drafting regulations under the Labour Code, and that these will take into account the comments of the Committee. The Committee hopes that these texts will be elaborated and adopted in the near future, and will give effect to the following Articles of the Convention: Article 1, paragraph 1 (application of the Labour Code of 1984 to apprentices); Article 3, paragraph 1, and Article 4 (periodic medical examination made by a doctor); Article 3, paragraphs 2 and 3 (repetition of the medical examination at intervals of not more than one year, both in ordinary cases and in the special circumstances provided for in paragraph 3); and Article 6 (physical and vocational rehabilitation of children and young persons found by medical examination to be unsuited to certain types of work or to have physical handicaps or limitations).
