Convenio sobre la inspección del trabajo, 1947 (núm. 81) - Bolivia (Estado Plurinacional de) (Ratificación : 1973)

The Committee notes with concern that the Government’s report has not been received for the fourth time. It is therefore bound to renew its reiterated observation, which read as follows:

Further to its previous comments, and referring in particular to the information available to the ILO, the Committee notes the launching of the multilateral technical cooperation project ILO/FORSAT, financed by the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs of Spain and covering other countries in the region, with the objective of strengthening labour administrations. It notes that labour inspection is one of the important components of the project and that cooperation and assistance activities should be undertaken for the definition of a legal and structural framework and the determination of working methods and procedures with a view to the development of an effective inspection system. The Government is requested to provide detailed information in its next report on any measure adopted in the context of this project and on the results achieved in relation to the objectives established, as well as in relation to the matters raised in the Committee’s comments of 2003.

Part V of the report form and article 23, paragraph 2, of the ILO Constitution. Recalling the obligation to communicate to the representative organizations of employers and workers, in accordance with this article of the Constitution, copies of the information and reports communicated, particularly under article 22 of the ILO Constitution, to the Director-General of the ILO, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate the precise reasons which might provide an explanation for the failure to comply with these provisions in the case of the present Convention.

The Committee urges the Government to make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future.
