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

Convenio sobre los trabajadores migrantes (disposiciones complementarias), 1975 (núm. 143) - Italia (Ratificación : 1981)

Article 14(a) of the Convention. The Committee notes from the Government's report that, under Ministry of Labour Circular No. 5333 of 18 November 1991, employers may not directly recruit workers who are not citizens of an EEC country. According to the Government, this provision is designed to meet the double objectives of protecting such workers from the risks of exploitation and of gaining greater knowledge of them (their number, distribution by occupational activity, etc.), to facilitate application of the provisions of Act No. 39/90 which specifies that manpower movements must be planned and a report on the matter submitted to Parliament.

The Committee asks the Government to provide information on the application of Circular No. 5333 referred to above and to indicate the measures that enable migrant workers who are not citizens of a member country of the EEC to choose their employment freely after they have resided lawfully in the territory for the purpose of employment for a period not exceeding two years.
