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

Safety Provisions (Building) Convention, 1937 (No. 62) - France (Ratification: 1950)

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 has taken note of the information supplied by the Government in its report and notes with interest the creation - pursuant to Decree No. 85-682 of 4 July 1985 - of a new occupational body responsible for promoting the prevention of accidents and the improvement of working conditions in the building industry. The Committee hoped that the action taken by this new body will contribute to reducing the number of occupational accidents in the above-mentioned industry, which appeared to be relatively high, according to the 1984 statistics supplied by the Government. The Committee also hoped that future reports would contain more recent statistical data on this subject.
