In previous comments, the Committee requested further information and statistics on the effective extension of the social security scheme in respect of employment injury to agricultural wage-earners coming under the scope of the Convention. In reply, the Government states that many laws exist to ensure protection of workers; that coverage of the entire working population is 20 per cent; and that 8 per cent of the covered workers are in the primary sector which would include agricultural workers.

The Committee notes this information. It points out that it is difficult to assess the progress made in extending the application of the Social Security Act No. 100 of 1993 to the agricultural sector, due to the lack of more precise statistics on the number of insured employees in agriculture in relation to the total number of agricultural employees, as well as the lack of statistics from previous years which would provide an indication of progress. It would appreciate receiving more detailed data in the Government's next report in order to assess the compliance of the employment injury scheme to the agricultural sector with the provisions of the Convention.
