Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1992, publiée 79ème session CIT (1992)

Convention (n° 81) sur l'inspection du travail, 1947 - Ghana (Ratification: 1959)

Articles 11 and 16 of the Convention. The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in reply to its previous comments concerning the size of the labour inspectorate, transport supplied, and numbers of workplaces visited. It notes with interest the large apparent increase in the number of workplaces visited in 1990-91 (907) as compared to 1989 (192). It hopes the Government will continue to supply information on this basis.

Articles 20 and 21. In reply to the previous direct request, the Government states that the annual inspection report for 1991 is being compiled. The Committee notes that the most recent annual report on the activities of the inspection services, for 1973 to 1974, was sent to the Internatonal Labour Office in 1980. The Committee would reiterate the importance of these reports for all concerned, since they enable the effectiveness of inspection operations to be assessed in an objective way. It hopes the reports due will now be received within the time-limits set out by the Convention and will include all the information set out in Article 21.
