Article 2(3) of the Convention. Medical certificate issued subject to specified conditions of employment or for a specified job. In its previous comments, the Committee noted that the type of medical examinations that young workers may undergo depends upon the type of hazards they encounter. In this respect, Decision of the Ministry of Health No. 46 of 2012 on Improving Compulsory Medical Examinations contains a list of jobs which require specific preliminary or periodic medical examinations. The Committee requested the Government to indicate if the medical certificate of fitness for employment can prescribe specific conditions of employment or be issued for a specific job or group of jobs involving similar health risks which have been classified as a group by the competent authority.

The Committee notes the Government’s indication in its report that the Rules for Compulsory Medical Examinations approved by the Decision of the Ministry of Health No. 24/2 of 2014 establish the procedure for specific preliminary and periodic medical examinations for the jobs indicated in Decision No. 46 of 2012 (for example, underground work, work in the food industry or transportation). The Committee observes that, according to the Rules for Compulsory Medical Examinations, the medical certificate of fitness for employment is issued based on the results of a particular preliminary medical examination for the jobs specified in Decision No. 46 of 2012.

Article 6(2). Cooperation between the various services established for the vocational guidance and rehabilitation of children and young persons found unsuited for work. The Committee previously requested the Government to provide information on the cooperation and effective liaison between the labour, health, educational and social services established for the vocational guidance and physical and vocational rehabilitation of children and young persons found unsuited for work. In this regard, the Committee observes that, pursuant to section 11 of the Act No. 1153-VQ of May 31, 2018 on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, an individual rehabilitation program is elaborated for children with disabilities, which aims at their medical, psychological, pedagogical, and vocational rehabilitation. The Committee also observes that the State Agency for Medical and Social Expertise and Rehabilitation coordinates the activities of the relevant state and local self-government bodies and legal entities for the purpose of rehabilitation of persons with disabilities (section 3.1.24 of the Charter of the State Agency for Medical and Social Expertise and Rehabilitation of 2020).
