The Committee notes the comments made by the Workers Confederation of Comoros (CTC) dated 31 August 2011, as well as of the Government’s report.

Articles 1(1) and 7 of the Convention. Scope of application and medical certificates of fitness for employment. In its previous comments, the Committee noted the Government’s indication that, in the context of the revision of the national labour legislation, all the necessary measures would be examined in order to bring the legislation into conformity with the provisions of the Convention.

The Committee takes note of the CTC’s observation that the Government has still not honoured its commitments to bring its labour legislation into line with the Convention. The CTC also points out that non-industrial occupations are outside the scope of the labour inspectorate’s supervision. In its report, the Government indicates that the bill revising the Labour Code will be submitted to the National Assembly for adoption. Noting that the Government has been referring to bringing its national legislation into line with the Convention for many years, the Committee expresses the firm hope that the bill revising the Labour Code will be adopted in the very near future and that its provisions will give effect to Articles 1(1) and 7 of the Convention. The Committee asks the Government to send information on any progress made in this respect.

Article 6. Physical and vocational rehabilitation of children and young persons determined unfit for work. In its comments made under the Medical Examination of Young Persons (Industry) Convention, 1946 (No. 77), the Committee noted the Government’s intention to take measures, within the framework of the revision of the Labour Code, to ensure that a text or statutory texts complying with the provisions of Article 6 of the Convention were adopted. Noting that the bill to revise the Labour Code has still not been adopted, the Committee expresses the firm hope that, as part of the revision of the national legislation, the necessary measures will be taken with a view to adopting a statutory text that complies with the provisions of Article 6 of the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on any progress achieved in this respect.
