The Committee takes note of the information supplied by the Government in reply to its previous request as well as of the comments of Bangladesh Employers' Association. It notes in particular the statistical information on accidents with the explanation of their nature and causes, provided by the Government.

As regard health and safety measures at the workplaces of dockers set up in section 3, subsection 2(h) of the the Dock Workers' (Regulation of Employment) Act 1980, No. XVII, the Government makes reference to the view expressed by the Dock Labour Management Board, under the Ministry of Shipping, according to which no special plan of such measures is necessary. Similar views have been communicated by the Bangladesh Employers' Association.

The Committee would be grateful if the Government would continue to supply information on the number, nature and causes of accidents reported, taking into account a growing number of serious accidents, reflected by the above-mentioned statistical data, as well as information on measures taken or envisaged to protect the workers against such accidents and other relevant information on a general appreciation of the manner in which the Convention is applied, in accordance with point V of the report form.
