Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1993, Publicación: 80ª reunión CIT (1993)

Convenio sobre la inspección del trabajo, 1947 (núm. 81) - Grecia (Ratificación : 1955)

Article 11, paragraphs 1(b) and 2, of the Convention. The Committee notes from the Government's report that it has done away with transport facilities earlier provided to labour inspectors, which has resulted in some difficulties in the exercise of their duties. The Committee recalls that the competent authority is required to provide labour inspectors with the necessary transport facilities for their work where suitable public facilities do not exist. Please provide indications as to what transport facilities are currently provided to labour inspectors and about the procedures to reimburse labour inspectors for any travel and incidental expenses needed for performing their duties.

Articles 20 and 21. The Committee notes the report of the central and regional Ministry of Labour services' activities for 1990 as well as a report for the second half of 1990 by the local labour inspectorate of Salonica. The Committee recalls that the Convention requires that the central inspection authority should publish, within a reasonable time after the end of each year to which the report relates and in no case within 12 months, an annual general report of the work of the services under its control and containing all the elements referred to in Article 21.

The Committee understands that tripartite inspection committees of three to five members exist in the construction industry and shipyards. Please describe the functioning of these bodies (in relation to Article 5(b)) and indicate any plans to extend them to other sectors of activity.
