Article 7 of the Convention. Statistics on lead poisoning among working painters. Application of the Convention in practice. The Committee previously noted that between 2004 and 2008, three cases of lead poisoning among glass and ceramic painters caused by long-term exposure were recorded. According to the information contained in the Government’s latest report, between 2009 and 2013, a total of 43 cases of lead poisoning caused by long-term exposure were recorded, including 14 cases in 2009 and six cases in 2013. The Committee requests the Government to indicate whether the causes of this big increase in the number of cases of lead poisoning have been identified and, if so, to supply information on this matter. It also requests the Government to send information on the measures taken to reduce the number of these cases in the future and to continue to supply statistics on lead poisoning among working painters.
