Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2004, published 93rd ILC session (2005)

Labour Inspection (Agriculture) Convention, 1969 (No. 129) - Romania (Ratification: 1975)

The Committee notes the Government’s reports and the attached documentation, and refers to its observation under the Labour Inspection Convention, 1947 (No. 81), and particularly the points raised by the National Trade Union Bloc (BNS) in a comment which also concerns the present Convention. While noting the specific information concerning the composition of the staff and the number of labour inspection visits in agricultural enterprises, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide the information requested in its observation under Convention No. 81, in so far as it applies to labour inspection in agricultural enterprises, under each of the following points:

(1)  the powers of labour inspectors to make orders and institute proceedings (Articles 18 and 22 of the Convention);

(2)  the confidentiality of the source of complaints (Article 20(c))

(3)  adequate penalties (Article 24);

(4)  the training of labour inspectors, the results of the work of the inspectorate and the annual inspection report (Articles 9, 14, 15, 26 and 27).

The Committee is addressing a request directly to the Government on other matters.
