Article 4(4) and (5) of the Convention. Records of persons who are employed or work underground. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes General Order No. 3018 of 29 September 1953 communicated with the Government’s report. It observes that the provisions of this Order do not meet all the requirements of Article 4(4) and (5) of the Convention. The Committee however notes the Government’s indication that it will look to introduce provisions in conformity with Article 4 of the Convention when the time comes to update General Order No. 3018. The Committee firmly encourages the Government to take the necessary measures in the near future to bring General Order No. 3018 of 29 September 1953 into conformity with the Convention.

Article 5. General policy for the implementation of the Convention. In its previous comments, the Committee noted that section 251 of the Labour Code provides for the establishment of an advisory committee on occupational safety and health, the composition and operation of which are determined by Order No. 000808/MTRHFP/SG/IGHMT of the Minister of Labour. In this respect, the Committee notes that the technical advisory committee on occupational safety and health has not yet been established due to a problem relating to the representativity of trade unions.

The Committee notes the Government’s indication that the problem relating to the representativity of trade unions referred to in the previous report persists and that it has not yet therefore been possible in practice to establish the technical advisory committee. The Committee requests the Government to continue providing information on any progress achieved in this respect.
