Workmen's Compensation (Agriculture) Convention, 1921 (No. 12) - Rwanda (RATIFICATION: 1962)

In its previous comments, the Committee drew the Government’s attention to the fact that the order specifying measures for the application of the Legislative Decree of 22 August 1974 regarding the organization of social security in respect of apprentices and daily, occasional and temporary workers had still not been adopted. The Government indicates in its report that this order should be issued in the near future to permit these workers to benefit from the right to social security in the same way as other workers. The Committee notes this information and hopes that the Government’s next report will indicate the adoption of the order envisaged in section 2 of the above Legislative Decree so as to secure for temporary and occasional agricultural workers the protection afforded by the legislation in the event of employment injury.
