The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:
Repetition
Prevention of occupational risks. The Committee notes the information sent by the Government on the staff and resources of the labour inspectorate. It notes that measures to prevent and assess occupational risks have recently been taken, such as the organization of a forum bringing together numerous prevention specialists, employers and representatives of staff and unions, and the launching of a general discussion on protection against asbestos. The Committee requests the Government to continue to provide information on the work of labour inspectors and controllers in the area of health protection and safety.
Effective cooperation between the labour inspection services and the justice system. The Committee notes that in 2007 the labour inspection service conducted a study on the action taken on inspectors’ reports filed in 2005. Noting that according to the results of this study, 30 per cent of the cases were still under investigation in 2007 and that work is under way with the Public Prosecutor’s Office to facilitate an exchange of information between the latter and the inspectorate, the Committee can but encourage the Government to pursue its efforts in this area and to provide the means to improve follow-up of inspectors’ reports so as to ensure that the legal provisions on conditions of work and protection of workers are effectively applied.
