Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1990, Publicación: 77ª reunión CIT (1990)

Convenio sobre la indemnización por accidentes del trabajo, 1925 (núm. 17) - Portugal (Ratificación : 1929)

The Committee notes the detailed information supplied by the Government in its report. It also notes the information that the progressive integration of protection against industrial accidents into the general social security scheme, as set out in section 72 of Act No. 28/84 of 14 August 1984, still has to be regulated. Workers' compensation for accidents is therefore still covered by insurance companies and employers' bodies which, under their normal procedure, transfer this responsibility to insurance companies. The Committee notes this information and requests the Government to supply imformation on any development in the implementation of section 72 of the above Act.
