Convenio sobre la inspección del trabajo, 1947 (núm. 81) - Brasil (Ratificación : 1989)

Further to its observation, the Committee hopes the Government's next report will include information on the following matters:

Article 3(2) of the Convention. The Committee notes that inspectors' duties include intervention in labour disputes. Please show how it is ensured that this does not prejudice the effective and impartial discharge of their primary function.

Article 5(a). Please indicate in practice how the central inspection authority ensures effective cooperation not only with other central bodies with responsibilities in such areas as health, welfare or youth but also with bodies operating at the level of the state, region and locality.

Article 5(b). The Committee notes that the practical application of arrangements for cooperation of the inspection services with employers and workers and their organisations is unsatisfactory due to administrative reforms made in 1990. Please indicate what progress is being made in this respect.

Article 7(3). The Committee notes that there are practical difficulties in applying training arrangements for inspectors. Please indicate the steps taken to overcome these difficulties.

Article 20. Please indicate whether the annual report on inspection is published and forwarded to the ILO in conformity with this Article.

Article 21(c), (f) and (g). Please ensure that statistics of workplaces liable to inspection and the numbers of workers employed in them, industrial accidents and occupational diseases are included in future annual inspection reports.
