The Committee takes note of the Government’s report which was received on 14 October 2009. In addition, further to its comments made under Convention No. 81, the Committee would like to raise the following question.

Articles 19 and 27(f) of the Convention. Statistics on occupational accidents and diseases. The Committee notes with interest the indication by the Government that no fatal accident at work took place in agriculture and forestry in 2008, nor by the end of May 2009. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate whether and, in which manner, the work of the labour inspectors has contributed to such progress.

Articles 26 and 27. Submission and content of annual report. The Committee notes that an extensive and detailed annual labour inspection report for 2008 is available on the Internet in Slovenian and takes due note of the statistical information provided in the Government’s report on the number of inspections carried out and decisions issued by the labour inspection service in agriculture between 2005 and 2008. It also notes from the Government’s report, however, that there is no data on the number of labour inspectors performing inspections in the area of agriculture.

The Committee recalls that the annual report on labour inspection activities in agriculture should contain information on each of the subjects listed in Article 21, including data on the staff of the labour inspection service in agriculture (clause (b)) as well as the agricultural undertakings liable to inspection and the persons working therein (clause (c)). The Committee draws the Government’s attention to its 2009 general observation on the need to give effect to clause (c) for the labour inspection central authority to be in a position to evaluate the coverage and implementation of the Convention in practice.

The Committee would be grateful if the Government would regularly furnish in its reports on the application of this Convention, a summary of the data contained in the annual report with regard to the issues listed in clauses (b)–(g) of Article 27. Noting, moreover, that the Government’s report includes among the activities carried out by labour inspectors in agriculture the registration and “revocation” of aliens, the Committee would be grateful if more details would be provided by the Government on the specific functions carried out by the labour inspectors in this regard and their result.
