Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2015, published 105th ILC session (2016)

Guarding of Machinery Convention, 1963 (No. 119) - Croatia (Ratification: 1991)

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous comments.

Repetition

Article 17 of the Convention. Declaration for a restricted application of the Convention. The Committee notes that in its response to its previous comment on this Article, the Government reiterates the information that section 4 of the Act on Amendments to the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OG 75/09) amended the Occupational Safety and Health Act by prescribing that the provisions of that Act shall not apply to members of the armed forces and the police engaged in maintaining public order and security. The Committee again wishes to draw the attention of the Government to the fact that a declaration limiting the applicability of the Convention is admissible only at the time of ratification and cannot be made later on. The Committee again requests the Government to take the necessary measures in order to ensure that all the categories of workers are covered by relevant legislation.
