Article 3(2) of the Convention. Determination of types of hazardous work. Following its previous comments, the Committee notes with regret that the list of types of hazardous work prohibited to children under 18 years, which the Government has been referring to since 2011, has not yet been adopted. The Government indicates, in its report, that the list will be gazetted once the amendments to the Labour Act are completed. The Committee once again urges the Government to take the necessary measures to ensure that the list of types of hazardous work is adopted without further delay. It requests the Government to provide a copy of the list, once adopted.
Article 7. Light work. Following its previous comments, the Committee notes that the regulations on the light work activities permitted to children between 12 and 14 years of age have not yet been adopted. The Government indicates that the list will be gazetted once the amendments to the Labour Act are completed. The Committee requests the Government to take the necessary measures to ensure that the above-mentioned regulations are adopted soon, so as to determine the light work activities permitted to children between 12 and 14 years of age, as well as the number of hours during which and the conditions under which such employment may be undertaken. It requests the Government to provide a copy of the regulations on light work, once adopted.
The Committee is raising other matters in a request addressed directly to the Government.
