The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous comments.
Repetition
Article 1 of the Convention. Extension of compensation for occupational injury to employees in agriculture. In its previous comments, the Committee requested the Government to comment on the allegations from the General Workers’ Confederation of Madagascar (CGSTM), according to which agricultural wage-earners are mainly working in the informal sector and that they do not benefit from appropriate protection. The CGSTM also alleged that no concrete and consistent actions have been taken despite the recommendations made by the CGSTM that the State should examine more closely the situation of rural workers. The Committee notes with interest that, in its last report, the Government indicates that it organized a national conference on the promotion of social security rights of rural workers, in October 2015, in cooperation with the ILO. At this conference, a national social security policy for rural workers has been developed, which is currently under review. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the outcome of this examination and of any actions taken to implement the said policy.
