The Committee takes note of the comments of the Confederation of Progressive Trade Unions of Turkey (DISK) and the Confederation of Public Employees’ Unions of Turkey (TÜRKIYE KAMU-SEN) with regard to certain points on the application of the Convention, which were transmitted with the Government’s report. In the views of the Confederation of Progressive Trade Unions of Turkey (DISK), the Convention is not applied in the country and the relevant legislation is not being adequately enforced. In particular, the protective measures prescribed under Article 3 of the Convention have not been taken, as well as the maximum dose limits for workers’ exposure to ionizing radiation have not been fixed for the different categories of workers, in conformity with Articles 6, 7 and 8, of the Convention. Moreover, workers exposed do not undergo periodical medical examinations.

The TÜRKIYE KAMU-SEN, for its part, indicates that the Convention is not implemented in practice on a regular basis. It refers in particular to the apparent different level of protection between workers in the public and private sector, although the collective agreements concluded cover both the public and the private sector. The Committee will address these comments together with any comments the Government may wish to make thereon, at its next session.

[The Government is requested to respond in detail to the present comments in 2005.]
