Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2000, Publicación: 89ª reunión CIT (2001)

Convenio sobre la indemnización por accidentes del trabajo, 1925 (núm. 17) - Santa Elena

In reply to the Committee’s previous comments, the Government indicates in its last report that the Bill for an ordinance to bring the Workmen’s Compensation Ordinance into line with Articles 5 and 9 of the Convention was not enacted as previously indicated because of the lack of response from the various organizations to whom the Bill was copied for comments. The Government adds that the matter was raised once again with a view to presenting a bill to the Legislative Council. The Committee notes this information and hopes that the legislation will be adopted in the very near future in order to ensure the full application of Articles 5 and 9 of the Convention. It would appreciate receiving a copy of the law as enacted when the report is next due.

[The Government is asked to report in detail in 2002.]
