Convenio sobre la igualdad de trato (accidentes del trabajo), 1925 (núm. 19) - Djibouti (Ratificación : 1978)

The Committee notes with regret that for many years the Government has been referring in its reports to various draft legislative texts intended to bring the national laws and regulations into full conformity with the Convention. It notes that, since 1993, the Government has been indicating that a new draft Labour Code is being formulated and that it will be transmitted to the ILO as soon as it has been adopted. The Committee expresses the firm hope that the above draft legislative reform will provide the opportunity to take into account the comments that it has made on many occasions on the need to eliminate the residence condition so that, in accordance with Article 1, paragraph 2, of the Convention, nationals of any other Members that have ratified the Convention, and their dependants, benefit from equality of treatment with nationals of Djibouti in respect of employment injury benefit irrespective of their residence. It trusts that the Government will be able to provide information in its next report on the progress made in this matter.

[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2005.]
