Repetition

Article 2(2) of the Convention. Insertion of labour clauses in public contracts. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that there was a review of the Employment Act, as well as the Labour Relations Act, with support from the Government of Canada, with a view to identifying areas of the Labour Code that should be updated. The Government indicates that the revised Employment Act and Labour Relations Act will form part of the new Labour Code. The Committee requests the Government to keep the Office informed of progress in this regard and to communicate a copy of the revised Labour Code once it has been adopted.

Article 3. Health and safety. The Government indicates that, since its last report in 2013, it has initiated a process of modernization of the occupational safety and health system. The Government adds that it is committed to ensuring that, once the draft Occupational Safety and Health Bill (the OSH Bill) is approved by the Parliament, there will be fair and reasonable conditions of health, safety and welfare for workers engaged in the execution of public contracts. In this regard, the Government indicates that the OSH Bill, the Employment Act and the Labour Relations Act will form the revised Labour Code. The Committee notes the commitment expressed by the Government and requests that it keep the Office informed of developments relating to the application of the provisions of the Convention.
