Article 5 of the Convention. Additional medical examination by a medical referee. Further to its previous comment, the Committee notes the Government’s reference to the Ministry of Health Order No. 302N of 12 April 2011 on establishing a list of harmful and/or hazardous production factors and types of work requiring prior and periodic medical examinations or check-ups and the procedure for carrying out such examinations. The Committee notes, in particular, that the Order of 2011, which essentially reproduces the provisions of a similar Ministry of Health Decree of 2004, includes work on board ships as among the harmful and hazardous occupations requiring periodic medical examinations and also provides for annual medical examinations of persons under 21 years of age. The Committee notes, however, that the Order does not appear to provide for any arrangement to enable a person who, after an initial medical examination, has been refused a certificate to apply for a further examination by an independent medical referee, as required under this Article of the Convention. Recalling that the same requirement has been incorporated in Article 11(e) of the Work in Fishing Convention, 2007 (No. 188), the Committee requests the Government to indicate any measures taken or envisaged in order to give effect to this provision of the Convention.
