Article 2(3) of the Convention. Measures that could be taken to ratify relevant occupational safety and health (OSH) Conventions of the ILO. In its previous comments, the Committee noted the Government’s indication that tripartite consultations have been held on the possibility of ratifying other Conventions in the area of OSH.
The Committee notes that, according to information provided by the Government in its report, employers’ and workers’ organizations are still heavily involved in all activities carried out at the national level and the collaboration is fruitful and dynamic. However, the Government has not periodically considered what measures could be taken to ratify ILO Conventions in the area of OSH. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the consultations held with the most representative employers’ and workers’ organizations regarding the measures that could be taken to ratify ILO Conventions in the area of OSH, and on the outcome of these consultations.
Articles 3(1) and 4(3)(a). National OSH policy and national tripartite advisory body. The Committee notes that section 168 of the Labour Code establishes the OSH Advisory Committee (CTCSST). The Interministerial decree No. 008/2011/MTESS/CAB/DGTLS of 26 May 2011 establishes the CTCSST’s tripartite composition and its functions, including to study and give opinions on regulations related to working conditions, occupational hygiene and occupational safety and safety and health. The Committee requests the Government to provide further information on the consultations on the national OSH policy held in the context of the CTCSST. It requests additional information on the activities of the CTCSST, including the frequency of its meetings and the OSH issues that are discussed.
Article 4(1). Obligation to establish, maintain, progressively develop and periodically review a national system for OSH, in consultation with the social partners. In its previous comments, the Committee noted that a national system for occupational safety and health, comprising the elements listed in Article 4(2), has been established in consultation with the most representative employers’ and workers’ organizations.
The Committee notes that, according to information provided by the Government, the national system for OSH has not yet been subject to a periodic review. The Committee requests the Government to take steps to ensure that the national system for OSH is reviewed periodically, in consultation with the most representative organizations of employers and workers. The Committee also requests the Government to provide information on the consultations held on this matter.
Article 4(3)(f). Mechanisms for the collection and analysis of data on occupational injuries and diseases. Application of the Convention in practice. In its previous comments, the Committee requested the Government to provide detailed information on the manner in which data on injuries and diseases are collected and analysed under section 172 of the Labour Code and section 51 of the Social Security Code.
The Committee notes the statistical information provided by the Government, according to which, in 2015, some 1,470 cases of occupational accidents and two cases of occupational disease were recorded. The Committee requests the Government to continue its efforts to ensure that data on occupational injuries and diseases are up to date and to continue to provide statistical information on this matter.
Article 4(3)(h). Support mechanisms for a progressive improvement of OSH conditions in microenterprises, in small and medium-sized enterprises and in the informal economy. The Committee notes that, according to information provided by the Government, support mechanisms for a progressive improvement of OSH conditions in microenterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises are planned as part of a project to improve labour governance in microenterprises and in small and medium-sized enterprises and support the transition to the formal sector. The Committee also notes that, with the support of this project, a strategic plan for labour inspection (2018–22) has been formulated, with OSH as one of its priorities. The Committee notes this information.
Article 5. National programme. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that a national programme on OSH has not been formulated. The Committee once again requests the Government to take steps to establish a national OSH programme in accordance with the requirements of paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Article of the Convention. It also requests the Government to supply information on these measures, on the employers’ and workers’ organizations consulted, and on the outcome of these consultations.
