Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1988, publiée 75ème session CIT (1988)

Article 5 of the Convention. The Committee notes from the Government's reply to its previous direct request that the revision of the Decree of 7 February 1987 did not alter section 31, which makes medical examinations compulsory for workers after they have left their employment. It also notes, however, that the Decree is still not in force. The Committee also notes that the technical committee set up to establish a list of the clinical and paraclinical examinations recommended for the purpose of Article 5 of the Convention has not yet completed its work. The Committee would be grateful if in its next report the Government would indicate the measures taken to ensure that workers exposed to carcinogenic substances or agents are provided with medical examinations or biological and other tests or investigations after their period of employment, in accordance with Article 5 of the Convention.
