Articles 4 and 8 of the Convention. Formulation, implementation and periodic review of the national policy in consultation with the most representative employers’ and workers’ organizations. The Committee notes that the Government, in its report, indicates that with ILO technical assistance and following consultation with different sectors of the economy and public sector trade unions, proposals were drawn up on a national policy on occupational safety and health (OSH) and a revised General Act on the prevention of occupational risks, and its four regulations. The Government adds that the national policy on OSH has not yet been subject to a tripartite consultation process and that therefore it is currently treated as an internal technical paper. The Committee notes the Government’s information that the proposed national policy provides for the reactivation of the National Occupational Safety and Health Board (CONASSO), setting forth that it will be composed of representatives of public, workers’ and employers’ institutions, and that a regulation governing the Board must be established. In these circumstances, while welcoming the initiatives that have been taken, the Committee requests the Government to take the necessary steps to adopt the new policy on OSH in consultation with the most representative employers’ and workers’ organizations. In addition, noting that the draft national policy provides for the reactivation of CONASSO, the Committee would appreciate receiving information on any developments in this regard.

The Committee is raising other matters in a request addressed directly to the Government.
