Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1992, publiée 79ème session CIT (1992)

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the following matters raised in its previous direct request:

Article 5 of the Convention. The Committee noted 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 noted, however, that the Decree was still not in force. The Committee also noted 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 had 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.
