Labour Inspection Convention, 1947 (No. 81) - Finland (RATIFICATION: 1950)

Further to its previous observation, the Committee has noted the comment of the Central Organisation of Finnish Trade Unions (SAK), that increased official supervision of workplaces could reduce the number of accidents and occupational illnesses; and that of the Confederation of Salaried Employees (TVK), that there are few labour inspections conducted in the clerical and managerial sector and insufficient labour inspectors familiar with this sector. The Government states that inspections are being better targeted, prepared and followed up and are not any less efficient. It refers to continuing administrative reform. The Committee trusts the next report will provide details.
