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

Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment (Disabled Persons) Convention, 1983 (No. 159) - Bahrain (Ratification: 1999)

The Committee notes the brief mention of provisions of the Labour Code concerning persons with disabilities, contained in the Government’s first report, which was received in July 2001. The Committee recalls the particular importance of submitting a detailed first report, which provides the basis for its initial assessment of the observance of ratified Conventions. The Committee therefore would appreciate receiving more detailed information on each of the issues raised in the report form as well as further information on the application of the Convention in practice, as requested under Part V of the report form adopted by the Governing Body.
