Convenio sobre la protección de la maquinaria, 1963 (núm. 119) - Níger (Ratificación : 1964)

1. The Committee notes the information contained in the Government’s report.

2. With reference to the information given in the Government’s previous report, the Committee notes that its comments appears to have been taken into account in the preparation of the draft Decree issuing regulations under the Labour Code. The Committee hopes that these regulations will be adopted in the near future and that their adoption will provide a basis for giving effect to the following Articles of the Convention: Articles 2 and 4 (prohibition of the sale, hire, transfer in any other manner and exhibition of machinery without appropriate guards; formal designation of the persons upon whom the obligation to ensure the application of this prohibition rests), Article 10 (information and instructions to be given to workers) and Article 11 (prohibition upon using any machinery without the guards provided being in position or made inoperative). The Committee hopes that the Government will indicate the progress achieved in this respect in its next report.

[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2007.]
