Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1990, publiée 77ème session CIT (1990)

Convention (n° 81) sur l'inspection du travail, 1947 - Sao Tomé-et-Principe (Ratification: 1982)

The Committee notes that the new conditions of service of the labour inspectorate, to which the Government referred in its report for 1988, have not yet been approved. It hopes that this text will shortly be adopted and that it will give full effect to the provisions of Articles 6, 9, 12, paragraph 1(c), 14 and 15(a) and (b) of the Convention which were the subject of its earlier comments.

Articles 10, 11 and 16. The Committee asks the Government to indicate all measures taken or under consideration to reinforce the staff of the labour inspectorate and to provide inspectors with the necessary transport facilities to make regular visits to workplaces liable to inspection.

Articles 20 and 21. The Committee hopes that the difficulties referred to by the Government in its report will shortly be overcome and that, as a result, in future, annual inspection reports containing all the information provided for in Article 21 will be published and communicated to the International Labour Office within the time-limits laid down in Article 20.
