Status and conditions of service of labour inspectors. Recruitment and training of labour inspectors. Personnel, material resources of labour inspection services and inspections. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes the indications of the CTTC, according to which the labour inspection services have an insufficient number of inspectors who are not well qualified due to the fact that no specific measures have been taken by the Government for the training of labour inspectors. The Committee notes the information provided by the Government on this subject according to which the difficulties encountered by the labour inspection services and the absence of regular inspections are a result of the lack of qualified human resources and of material and financial resources, as well as the absence of conditions of service for labour inspectors and controllers. In this regard, it notes that the Government, through its plan of action 2019, is planning to draw up conditions of service for labour inspectors and controllers and to reinforce the capacities of the personnel of the labour inspection services within the framework of the second generation of Decent Work Country Programmes (DWCPs) and the plan for the development and modernization of the labour administration system. The Committee takes due note of the draft Order to issue the conditions of service of labour inspectors and controllers, which establishes, among other measures, the recruitment and training procedures and the conditions of services of labour inspectors and controllers. While noting the difficulties referred to by the Government, the Committee requests the Government to continue its action to ensure that workplaces are inspected as often and as thoroughly as is necessary to ensure the effective application of the relevant legal provisions. In this regard, it requests the Government to provide information on the number of labour inspectors in post and the number of inspections carried out. The Committee also requests the Government to provide a copy of the Order issuing the conditions of service of labour inspectors and controllers once it has been adopted and to provide information on any progress achieved with a view to the strengthening of the capacities of labour inspection personnel. In this respect, the Committee requests the Government to provide information on the training provided to labour inspectors, with an indication of the duration of training courses, the number of participants and the subjects covered.
