Article 14 of the Convention.  The Committee notes that this Article is being applied in general. However, it notes that the coverage of the statistics on non-fatal occupational injuries is not complete. The self-employed accounted for about 9 per cent of total employment in 1998. The percentage of total employment accounted for by the public sector, farms with fewer than 11 employees and private households is not available. The Committee requests information regarding any steps the Government may be envisaging to compile statistics of non-fatal injuries for these groups of workers.

Article 15.  The Committee notes that the position of the Government has not changed and that the Government continues to maintain that the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) was unable to include work stoppages involving less than 1,000 workers in the survey on work stoppages, due to a lack of financial resources, and that for most analytical purposes data on employers with 1,000 or more employees are sufficient in the United States. The Committee again asks the Government to keep this matter under review so as to ensure that the established limit is as low as possible, and to indicate in future reports any developments in this respect.
