Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2012, published 102nd ILC session (2013)

Labour Inspection Convention, 1947 (No. 81) - United Arab Emirates (Ratification: 1982)

Articles 20 and 21 of the Convention. Publication of an annual report on the work of the labour inspection services. The Committee notes with interest that the Government submitted the 2010 annual inspection report which contains information and data on the implementation of the Convention in practice, including statistics on the enterprises subject to labour inspection by emirate and the number of workers employed in these enterprises. Noting that the obligation to submit the annual report to the ILO is an ongoing obligation under Article 20(3) of the Convention, the Committee requests the Government to continue submitting the annual report within the deadlines established by this article. Furthermore, the Committee would be grateful if the Government could communicate, to the extent possible, statistics on the workers employed in the workplaces subject to inspection disaggregated by sex and origin (nationality).

The Committee is raising other points in a request that it is addressing directly to the Government.
