Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1995, publiée 83ème session CIT (1996)

1. The Committee notes that, concerning anthrax infection, the list of corresponding trades, industries or processes contained in the list of occupational diseases in Annex II of Decree No. 611 of 1992 does not include the loading, unloading, or transport of merchandise, as prescribed by the Convention.

2. The Committee requests further information on whether the list of occupations concerning the following diseases contained in Annex II of Decree No. 611 of 1992, is of an indicative or limitative nature: poisoning by phosphorus, arsenic, benzene, or halogen derivatives of hydrocarbons of the aliphatic series; or pathological manifestations due to ionising radiation.
