Articles 13, 14, 20 and 21(f) and (g) of the Convention. Occupational safety and health prevention in high-risk activities, and annual inspection report. The Committee notes the indication that (in order to tackle the issue of the negligence of workers who the Government claim to be the main cause of industrial accidents) the National Labour Inspection Office (ONIT), in conjunction with the Occupational Safety Directorate of the Ministry of Labour and Social Security and the trade unions, has implemented measures aimed at raising the awareness of workers and training them in the field of occupational safety and health, and that technical assistance has been received from the ILO with regard to various occupational hazards. The Committee requests the Government to send detailed information on the types of measures referred to above and on the results achieved, and also on the technical assistance provided by the ILO with regard to occupational hazards.

The Committee also requests the Government to supply statistics on injunctions which inspectors have imposed or have had imposed on the employer, in accordance with Article 13 of the Convention, including measures with immediate executory force, during the period covered by the Government’s next report.

With reference to its previous comments, the Committee also notes that the annual inspection report for 2011, as well as for 2010, both contain information on the sectors of activity in which a number of persons are employed who have been the victims of accidents but that such information is lacking with respect to many victims. The Committee requests the Government to supply the missing information regarding persons who were victims of occupational accidents in 2010 and 2011 and in respect of whom the sector of activity has not been specified in the annual inspection reports. The Committee also requests the Government to send information with its next report on cases of occupational disease for 2011, and to ensure that future annual reports include detailed information on the causes of occupational accidents and on the classification of cases of occupational disease.
