Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2013, published 103rd ILC session (2014)

Guarding of Machinery Convention, 1963 (No. 119) - Kyrgyzstan (Ratification: 1992)

Legislation. The Committee notes that the report received from the Government on the application of this Convention is identical to the reports submitted on the application of the Radiation Protection Convention, 1960 (No. 115), and the Working Environment (Air Pollution, Noise and Vibration) Convention, 1977 (No. 148). The Committee also notes that the Government provides brief information relative to the right to occupational safety and working conditions that meet safety and health requirements and to the national labour inspectorate in charge of monitoring compliance with labour legislation and occupational safety and health requirements. It notes in particular that effect appears to be given in law to Article 10 and Article 15 of the Convention, but that the legislation referred to in the report has not been provided with it and that the report does not contain information on the application of the other Articles of the Convention. Accordingly, in order to enable it to carry out a proper evaluation of the application of the Convention, the Committee asks the Government to provide detailed information on the specific provisions of the relevant legislation giving effect to the Articles of the Convention and to communicate the text of these provisions, if possible in one of the ILO’s working languages, with its next report.

Part IV of the report form. Application in practice. The Committee asks the Government to give a general appreciation of the manner in which the Convention is applied in the country, and to provide, where such statistics exist, information on the number of workers covered by the legislation, the number and nature of the contraventions reported, and the number, nature and cause of accidents and occupational diseases reported.
