Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2007, Publicación: 97ª reunión CIT (2008)

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

With reference to the Committee’s previous comments, the Government indicates in its last report that the Ministries of Labour and of Health are collaborating with a view to the adoption as soon as possible of an updated text setting out the list of occupational diseases. The Committee takes due note of this information and once again hopes that the Government will be in a position to communicate a copy of the updated list of occupational diseases provided for in section 157(3) of Act No. 8/98 on employment, section III, Chapter IV, of which governs occupational accidents and diseases. Furthermore, recalling that it has been making this request for several years, the Committee hopes that the Government will also provide with its next report a copy of the regulations respecting the industries or occupations liable to cause occupational diseases envisaged in section 157(4) of the above Act, to which reference was already made in the previous Labour Act of 1985 in section 143(3).

Finally, the Committee once again requests the Government to provide information on the application of the Convention in practice, in accordance with Part V of the report form.
