Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2001, published 90th ILC session (2002)

Labour Inspection Convention, 1947 (No. 81) - Gabon (Ratification: 1972)

The Committee notes the Government’s report and the table on the overall staff of the labour administration. It also notes the information reporting difficulties in the application of the Convention related to the inadequacy of the material resources available to the labour inspectorate. It wishes to emphasize the need to provide information on the points raised in the comments of the supervisory bodies so that they can discharge their supervisory functions effectively. In this respect, noting with regret that, for the third consecutive time, the Government has not provided the information requested in its previous comments on Articles 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, paragraph 1(a), 14, 16, 18, 20 and 21 of the Convention, the Committee is bound to repeat them once again in a request addressed directly to the Government.
