Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2016, published 106th ILC session (2017)

Dock Work Convention, 1973 (No. 137) - Guyana (Ratification: 1983)

The Committee notes with concern that the Government’s report has not been received. It is therefore bound to repeat its previous comments.

Repetition

The Committee noted the Government’s report for the period ending September 2002, according to which there has been no change in the application of the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to give a general appreciation on the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice, including for instance extracts from the reports of the authorities entrusted with the application of the laws and regulations, and the available information on the numbers of dockworkers on the registers of workers in docks maintained in accordance with Article 3 of the Convention and of any variations in their numbers (Part V of the report form).

The Committee expects that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the near future.
