Convenio sobre la inspección del trabajo, 1947 (núm. 81) - Italia (Ratificación : 1952)

Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes the detailed information supplied in the Government’s report as well as the abundant documentation annexed thereto.

Articles 4 and 5 of the Convention. In its previous observation, the Committee noted that the labour inspectorate acts as a central authority and coordinates between various services engaged in activities relating to occupational safety and health. In this regard, it notes with interest that new impetus was given to intensified inspection services through programming and coordination of integrated supervision and that, in particular, the activities of labour inspectors from the different authorities on fiscal, tax and social security respectively were carried out under the coordination of the Central Committee set up by the Ministerial Decree of 23 September 1998. The Committee hopes that the Government will continue to provide information on any further measures taken to enhance labour inspection.

The Committee notes, however, that the Government’s report contains no reply to its previous comment on the manner in which organizations of employers and workers have reacted to the legislative texts recently adopted on the duties of the labour inspectorate in relation to occupational safety and health. It would be grateful if the Government would supply such information in its next report.
