Articles 4, 8, 9 and 10. Prevention and control of, and protection against, occupational hazards. Establishment of criteria for determining the hazards of exposure to air pollution, noise and vibration and determination of exposure limits. Technical and supplementary organizational measures.

The Committee takes note of the adoption of the new Labour Code (Act No. L/2014/072/CNT of 10 January 2014). The Committee requests the Government to provide all implementing texts of the Code in view of a complete review of the new legislation.
The Committee further notes with regret that the Government’s report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous comments.
Article 1(1) of the Convention. The Committee notes that the draft conditions of service of the public service, which is being discussed within the Government, should contain the necessary measures to give full effect to the provisions of this Article of the Convention through their application in practice in all branches of economic activity. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on developments relating to these conditions of service and to provide a copy of them when they have been adopted.
Articles 4, 8 and 10. The Committee notes the information concerning a draft Order, prepared by the Government, which was due to be examined by the Advisory Committee on Labour and Social Legislation. This draft text would cover cesspits, drinking water, noise, vibration, air pollution, etc. The Committee requests the Government to indicate whether this text is issued under section 171(1) of the Labour Code. It reminds the Government that, under the terms of Article 4, the provisions adopted must prescribe the specific measures to be taken both for the prevention of occupational hazards due to air pollution, noise and vibration, and to control and protect workers against these hazards. The Committee also reminds the Government that, under the terms of Article 8 of the Convention, the above draft text should provide for the establishment of criteria for determining the hazards of exposure to air pollution, noise and vibration and should specify exposure limits. The Committee notes that the Government’s report does not indicate whether the above draft text provides, as required by Article 10, for the provision of personal protective equipment where the measures taken to eliminate hazards do not bring air pollution, noise and vibration within the limits specified by the competent authority. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the adoption of this draft text, to provide a copy when it has been adopted and to inform it of any other specific measures taken for the application of the provisions of Articles 4, 8 and 10 of the Convention.
Article 9. The Committee requests the Government to indicate the technical measures and supplementary work organizational measures intended to eliminate the above hazards.
Article 14. The Committee notes that the National Occupational Medicine Service is equipped with a laboratory which is inadequately provided with appropriate instruments for its needs, but that the Government plans within a relatively short period to provide the above Service with modern and appropriate equipment. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the progress made in equipping the National Occupational Medicine Service and to inform it of any other measures taken to promote such research.
The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the near future.

Article 4. The Committee noted previously that, under the terms of section 171(1) of the Labour Code, ministerial orders shall determine general health measures, particularly as regards ventilation, noise and vibration.

It requests the Government to indicate whether measures have been taken to promote research with regard to the prevention and control of hazards in the working environment due to air pollution, noise and vibration at this medical service. It also requests the Government to indicate any other measures which have been taken for the promotion of such research.

It requests the Government to indicate whether measures have been taken to promote research with regard to the prevention and control of hazards in the working environment due to air pollution, noise and vibration at this medical service. It also requests the Government to indicate any other measures which have been taken for the promotion of such research.

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 direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee notes the statement made by the Government in its report for the period ending 30 June 1989 that it has taken note of the Committee's previous comments and that a number of regulations are being drafted in order to give full effect to the Labour Code. It further notes that the Government has requested ILO technical assistance for drafting these texts so that they will be in conformity with the provisions of ILO Conventions. The Committee hopes that the provisions necessary for the full application of all Articles of the Convention will be drafted in the very near future and that they will adequately reflect the Committee's previous comments.

1. Article 1, paragraph 1 of the Convention. The Committee would recall that, in its previous comments, it noted that the public service was excluded from the provisions of the Labour Code, whereas under this Article all branches of economic activity are covered by the provisions of the Convention. It requests the Government to indicate the measures taken or envisaged to apply the provisions of the Convention to the public service.

2. Article 4. The Committee noted, in its previous comments, that section 171(1) of the Labour Code provided for Ministerial Orders to determine the general measures of public health, particularly with regard to ventilation, noise and vibration. The Committee again expresses the hope that an order will be adopted in the near future to prescribe specific measures to be taken for the prevention and control of, and protection against, occupational hazards due to air pollution, noise and vibration, as required by this Article. It hopes that such order will in particular give full effect to the following provisions:

Article 8. The Committee requests the Government to indicate the measures to establish criteria for determining the hazards of exposure to air pollution, noise and vibration and to specify exposure limits.

Article 9. It further requests the Government to indicate the technical and organisational measures to eliminate those hazards.

Article 10. The Committee requests the Government to indicate the measures taken to ensure the provision of personal protective equipment at workplaces where the air pollution, noise and vibration levels exceed the exposure limits determined by the competent authority.

3. Article 14. The Committee notes that, in its report for Convention No. 139, the Government indicated that a medical service had been endowed with a laboratory for the study and analysis of occupational accidents and diseases. The Committee requests the Government to indicate whether measures have been taken to promote research with regard to the prevention and control of hazards in the working environment due to air pollution, noise and vibration at this medical service. It also requests the Government to describe any other measures taken for the promotion of this research.
