Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2010, published 100th ILC session (2011)

Working Environment (Air Pollution, Noise and Vibration) Convention, 1977 (No. 148) - France (Ratification: 1985)

The Committee notes with satisfaction that full effect has been given to Articles 4(1) and 8(3) of the Convention through the adoption of Law No. 2009‑526, which amends section L.4621-1 of the Labour Code, and, as a result, removes the exception for transport enterprises in relation to provisions concerning air pollution, noise and vibrations; and the extension of coverage under Decree No. 2009-781 of provisions concerning prevention against vibrations to extractive industries (mines and quarries).

The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
