Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes with interest the information supplied in the Government's report and the adoption of Executive Decree No. 91-05 of 19 January 1991 establishing general occupational health and safety provisions to give effect to Act No. 88-07 of 26 January 1988. The Government is asked to provide additional information on the following points in its next report:

1. Article 14 of the Convention. The Commission notes that under section 19 of the Executive Decree seats must be provided in changing rooms. The Committee points out, however, that this Article of the Convention provides that sufficient and suitable seats shall be supplied for workers and that workers must be given opportunities of using them. The Government is asked to indicate how this Article is applied in practice to ensure that all the workers covered by the Convention are given the opportunity to use the seats made available to them.

2. Article 18 of the Convention. The Government is requested to indicate the measures taken or contemplated to reduce vibrations likely to have harmful effects on workers.
