In its previous comments the Committee had requested the Government to take the measures necessary in order to establish the maximum permissible weight of loads that may be transported manually by one adult male worker. The Committee notes that the Confederation of Turkish Trade Unions, in comments which were attached to the Government's report, had stated that it shared the views of the Committee in this respect.

The Committee notes with satisfaction that the Regulation of 12 May 1991 modified the point 90 of the table in the Appendix to the Regulation regarding strenuous and dangerous work, establishing the maximum permissible weight of loads which may be transported manually by one adult male worker. The medical certificate is henceforth required for the transport of loads that weigh more than 25 kg but not more than 50 kg.
