The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report and the comments made by the Mauritius Employers’ Federation (MEF). The Committee notes that the MEF states that Mauritius has been fast developing during the last two decades and that this development has been accompanied by investment in the island’s infrastructure including port and harbour facilities and processes. It further indicates that the improvements brought about to the work performed on shore or on board ships regarding loading and unloading have greatly helped to enhance the protection against accidents in this sector of activity.
Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes from the Government’s report that the Maritime Occupational Safety Regulations have not been adopted yet. The Government further indicates that the Mauritius Port Authority is presently engaged in the revision of legislation regulating port safety. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would keep the Office informed of any developments in this regard and to provide a copy of any texts adopted.
