Observation (CEACR) - adopted 1997, published 86th ILC session (1998)

Labour Inspection Convention, 1947 (No. 81) - Brazil (Ratification: 1989)

The Committee notes the Government's report. It also notes the observations communicated by the Trade Union of Alimentation Industries Workers of Jundiaí, Cajamar, Campo Limpo Paulista, Louveira, Itupeva, Várzea Paulista and Vinhedo with respect to the application of the Convention as well as the Government's response to these comments, received at the ILO on 28 November 1997. The Committee notes that the unions claim the lack of efficiency of the labour inspection concerning the application of the provisions on safety and security at work. The Committee will examine these allegations as well as the information provided by the Government at its next session. The Committee also refers to its observation under the Occupational Safety and Health Convention, 1981 (No. 155).
