The Committee notes 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 comments which read as follows:
Repetition
Article 1(1) of the Convention. Scope of application: agricultural sector. In its previous comments, the Committee noted the information provided by the Government that, pursuant to Council of Ministers Resolution No. 105/2004, the review of the occupational safety and health legislation applicable to the agricultural sector was to be completed by the end of October 2004. The Committee notes that the Government has not provided information concerning the legislation. Noting that, according to the Government’s report, the occupational safety and health legislation is applicable to all workers, thereby ensuring the application of the Convention to agricultural workers, the Committee requests the Government to provide information on the legislation which gives effect to the Convention with regard to agricultural workers.
Application of the Convention in practice. The Committee notes the statistics provided by the Government, the judicial decisions concerning occupational accidents and the 2009 Operational Programme of the authority for working conditions. The Committee requests the Government to continue providing information on the application of the Convention in practice and to include summaries of the judicial decisions communicated, indicating, where possible, the Articles of the Convention relating to the decisions communicated.
[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2015.]
