Article 1(2) of the Convention. Payment of benefits abroad. The Committee notes the Government’s indication in its report that, from 1 July 2016, work ability allowances are provided by the Unemployment Insurance Fund in case of total or partial inability to work according to the Work Ability Allowance Act of 2014. The Committee further notes that, as per section 17(2) of this Act, work ability allowances are paid upon request of the injured worker into his or her bank account in a foreign state, at the expense of the recipient. The Committee requests the Government to provide practical information on the manner in which the transfer of work ability allowances abroad is regulated with respect to persons having suffered industrial accidents or their dependants who reside in other States parties to the Convention: (a) in the case of national workers; and (b) in the case of foreign workers. It further requests the Government to supply statistical data, if any, on the payment abroad of work ability allowances to the persons concerned.
