Convenio sobre las enfermedades profesionales, 1925 (núm. 18) - Guinea-Bissau (Ratificación : 1977)

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation which read as follows:

The Committee notes with regret that no progress has yet been made to complete the legislation that is in force by including a list of occupational diseases in the terms of Article 2 of the Convention. In view of the importance of this question, the Committee is bound once again to hope that the void that it notes in the legislation will be filled by the adoption, in the near future, of a list of occupational diseases including, at least, those enumerated in the Schedule appended to Article 2 of the Convention, which shall be recognised as occupational diseases when they are contracted in the circumstances specified in the above Schedule.

TEXT

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future.
