Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1992, published 79th ILC session (1992)

Labour Inspection Convention, 1947 (No. 81) - Cuba (Ratification: 1954)

Articles 14, 20 and 21 of the Convention. The Committee notes the report communicated by the Government and the annual reports on inspection for the years 1989 and 1990. It points out that the purpose of notifying the labour inspectorate of occupational diseases is to enable the inspectors to carry out investigations in order to determine the causes of those diseases and arrange for the necessary measures to be taken to prevent similar cases arising. The Committee trusts that the negotiations between the Ministry of Public Health and the State Committee on Statistics will be fruitful, so that diagnosed cases of occupational disease may be notified; and that the next annual report on labour inspection will include the appropriate statistics.
