Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2010, Publicación: 100ª reunión CIT (2011)

Convenio sobre la inspección del trabajo, 1947 (núm. 81) - Mauritania (Ratificación : 1963)

With reference to its observation, the Committee requests the Government to supply further information on the following points.

Legislation. In its previous comments the Committee asked the Government to provide information on the process of adoption of regulatory texts relating to labour inspection, as provided for by sections 369 to 381 of the Labour Code of 2004. It notes the Government’s indication that a draft order determining the duties of labour inspectors and controllers and also the structure and working conditions of inspection departments, as provided for by section 369, is still being drawn up and will be adopted once the new Government has taken office. The Committee requests the Government to supply a copy of the definitive text of the order in question once it has been adopted and to provide information in its next report on its impact in practice.

Article 18 of the Convention. Adequate penalties. In its previous comments the Committee asked the Government to indicate the measures taken or contemplated to ensure that the amounts of fines provided for by the Labour Code (Book VII) are updated, where necessary, to maintain a deterrent effect. Since the updated legislative provisions on penalties were not attached to the report, the Committee requests the Government to send them with its next report and to supply information on their application in practice.
