Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1993, published 80th ILC session (1993)

Hygiene (Commerce and Offices) Convention, 1964 (No. 120) - Ghana (Ratification: 1966)

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 matters raised in its previous direct request:

The Committee noted from the Government's report for the period ending 30 June 1990 that there had been no change in the legislation or administrative regulations applying the Convention. The Committee would recall that in its observation of 1971, it had noted the Government's statement, with respect to Article 16 of the Convention concerning appropriate standards of hygiene for underground or windowless premises in which work is normally performed, that no such premises existed in the country. The Committee requests the Government to ascertain whether such premises now exist and, if so, to indicate the legislative measures taken or contemplated to ensure appropriate standards of hygiene for these premises.
