The Committee notes the Government’s latest report including information regarding relevant legislation allegedly giving effect to the provisions in the Convention, some of which was attached to the report.

Article 4 of the Convention. Applicable laws and regulations. Having examined available information, the Committee notes the provisions in section 44 of the Ministerial Decree on the exercise of commercial activities and the rules for commercial services to the population requiring the employers to provide suitable facilities for changing, storing and drying clothes giving effect to Article 15 of the Convention. However, as far as the Committee is able to determine, the legislation otherwise referred to mainly includes building and construction standards which regulate the construction and installation of ventilation, lighting, heating and sanitary arrangements, as well as the supply of public water, but does not prescribe obligations imposed on the employers to ensure the protection of workers employed in commerce and offices as contained in Articles 7–14 and 16 of the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to indicate the specific provisions, in the Labour Code or in other legislation, which it alleges give effect to the provisions of the Convention in Articles 7–14 and 16.

Part V of the report form. Application in practice.The Committee reiterates its request to the Government to give a general appreciation of the manner in which the Convention is applied in Ukraine, providing, for example, extracts from reports of the inspection services and, to the extent such statistics are available, information concerning the number and nature of contraventions reported and the action taken on them, etc.

[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2011.]
