Article 6 of the Convention. Statistical information relating to the number and classification of accidents occurring to persons occupied on work within the scope of the Convention. Application of the Convention in practice. The Committee notes the detailed information provided in the Government’s report on the number of audits in the construction industry between 1 July 2009 and 31 December 2013, as well as the detailed statistical information disaggregated by number of employees per undertaking, gender and gravity of injuries with regard to accidents at work. The Committee notes the indication by the Government that the largest number of audits conducted, and the largest number of decisions issued by labour inspectors requiring an adjustment of actual conditions in order to be aligned with the requirements of national regulations, concerned plants employing from one to nine workers. The Government explains that one of the reasons for that is the important number of small companies on construction sites and the decrease in the number of large companies. It also notes that the three most commonly occurring irregularities noted in decisions by the labour inspectorate concerned works on scaffolds, works performed at height and lack of fencing and marking of hazardous zones. The Committee further notes from the Government’s report that there was a decrease in the number of accidents in the construction sector between 2008 and 2012. The Committee requests the Government to continue to provide information relating to the number and classification of accidents in relation to the Convention as well as a general appreciation of the manner in which the Convention is applied in the country in practice.
