Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1999, published 88th ILC session (2000)

Labour Inspection Convention, 1947 (No. 81) - Rwanda (Ratification: 1980)

The Committee notes the Government's report and the information supplied in reply to its earlier comments. It also notes that the Government has filed a formal request for ILO technical assistance in respect of training for labour inspectors. The Committee requests the Government to supply information in its next report on the progress and content of such action as may already have been undertaken under the technical assistance and also on results obtained, if any.

The Committee notes that the last version of the draft Labour Code submitted to the ILO takes due account of its suggestions. It hopes that the Government will soon be able to inform the ILO of the adoption of new provisions as well as the measures taken or envisaged for their implementation. In all events, the Committee requests the Government to supply details in its next report on the manner in which effect is given to the provisions of Article 10 of the Convention, in particular on the number, nature, size and situation of the workplaces liable to inspection (Article 10(a)(i)); the number and classes of workers employed in such workplaces (Article 10(a)(ii)); the material means placed at the disposal of the inspectors (Article 10(b)) and the practical conditions under which visits of inspection are carried out (Article 10(c)) as well as information on the number, status and geographical distribution of the labour inspectors.
