Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2008, published 98th ILC session (2009)

Workmen's Compensation (Accidents) Convention, 1925 (No. 17) - Armenia (Ratification: 2004)

The Committee notes the first report sent by the Government mainly referring to the provisions of the 1998 Civil Code relating to civil liability. However, the Committee understands that there is a compulsory social insurance system in the country including a section on industrial accidents which establishes specific legislative provisions in this field. The Committee would therefore be grateful if the Government would supply details in its next report on the manner in which the social security legislation gives effect to each of the provisions of the Convention, providing, as far as possible, a translation of all the relevant provisions in this regard. The Committee will undertake a detailed examination of the application of the Convention in Armenia on the basis of any further information sent by the Government.
