Article 5(4)(a) of the Convention. Requirements established in laws and regulations. Mine rescue. The Committee notes that sections 304, 305 and 315-319 of the Labour Code provide requirements concerning medical services and sections 37, 161 and 162 of the General Regulations on the operation of non-fuel producing mines (the General Regulations) provide requirements for first aid. However, there do not appear to be specific provisions concerning mine rescue. The Committee requests the Government to take the necessary measures to establish in national laws and regulations the requirements to be followed in relation to mine rescue.
Article 5(4)(b). Self-rescue respiratory devices. The Committee notes the Government’s indication in reply to its previous comment that section 161 bis of the General Regulations broadens the coverage of first aid from victims of electrical accidents to persons at risk of asphyxia. However, the Committee notes that it does not cover the provision of self-rescue respiratory devices, as envisaged in Article 5(4)(b) of the Convention. The Committee once again requests the Government to take the necessary measures to ensure that national laws and regulations include the requirement to provide and maintain adequate self-rescue respiratory devices for workers in underground coal mines and, where necessary, in other underground mines.
The Committee is raising other matters in a request addressed directly to the Government.
