Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1991, published 78th ILC session (1991)

Sickness Insurance (Sea) Convention, 1936 (No. 56) - Djibouti (Ratification: 1978)

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the following matter raised in its previous direct request:

The Committee recalls that to this day in the Republic of Djibouti there is no sickness insurance, as provided for by the Convention and by Act No. 212/AN/82 to issue the Maritime Code. The Committee hopes that the Government will soon be able to set up the regulations which are necessary under the Act to establish a sickness insurance scheme for seafarers. It asks the Government to report on any progress made in this respect.
