Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1990, published 77th ILC session (1990)

Labour Inspection Convention, 1947 (No. 81) - Dominica (Ratification: 1983)

Article 3, paragraph 1(b) and (c), of the Convention. With reference to its previous comments, the Committee trusts that the Government will take the necessary measures to ensure that the labour inspectorate is required to (a) supply technical information to employers and workers concerning the most effective means of complying with the legal provisions, and (b) bring to the notice of the competent authority defects or abuses not specifically covered by existing legal provisions.

Article 15. While noting the information provided by the Government to the effect that it is normal that labour inspectors do not have direct or indirect interests in undertakings, the Committee hopes that appropriate legislative measures will be taken to give effect to the provisions of this Article of the Convention.

Articles 20 and 21. The Committee notes with regret that no report on the work of the inspection services has yet been communicated to the International Labour Office. It reiterates the hope that, in future, annual inspection reports containing all the information required under Article 21 will be published and transmitted to the International Labour Office within the time-limits laid down in Article 20.
