The Committee notes the detailed information supplied in the Government's report.

Article 7 of the Convention. The Committee notes that guarantees of safe working conditions and the prevention of employment injuries are laid down in the Fundamentals of Labour Legislation. It also notes that the application of the laws and regulations respecting the protection of workers' safety and health is supervised by the labour protection and safety techniques service in the public sector and by supervisory bodies at the state and municipal level and trade union organizations responsible for technical and legal labour inspection. Furthermore, with reference to its general observation of 1990, which was reiterated in 1994, the Committee requests the Government to indicate the measures which have been taken or are envisaged, in consultation with the employers' and workers' organizations concerned, to take into account the particular risk of accidental exposure to the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) among nursing personnel: for example, through the arrangement of working conditions, the confidentiality of test results, recognition that the cause of infection was occupational, etc.

Point V of the report form. Please continue to supply general information on the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice and also provide, where possible, information on the number of persons who are leaving the profession.
