Notification of occupational diseases. The Committee recalls that for many years it has noted the operational difficulties of the system for the notification of occupational diseases. In its communication received on 1 September 2014, the General Confederation of Workers (CGT) indicates that the Labour Code contains only a few provisions on this issue, and that consequently there are significant gaps. The Government confirms that there is no specific provision in the Labour Code on the mandatory notification of occupational diseases, but that section 9(j) of the General Regulations on Occupational Accident and Disease Prevention Measures requires employers to keep an adequate record of occupational accidents and diseases that occur in the workplace. It also reports that the Secretariat of Labour and Social Security will submit the proposed amendment of section 435 of the Labour Code to the Economic and Social Council (CES), so that the issue of the mandatory notification of occupational diseases is forwarded to the National Congress. Duly noting this statement, the Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to establish, without further delay, an effective system for the notification, recording and compensation of occupational diseases. The Committee requests the Government to keep the Office informed of any progress achieved in this respect and to provide a copy of any amendment adopted on this subject.
