In its previous observations and further to the comments of 5 March 1991 by the Democratic Confederation of Labour and the General Union of Workers of Morocco on the application of the Convention, the Committee asked the Government to provide detailed information on the measures taken or contemplated to encourage employers and workers better to meet their obligations to report occupational accidents occurring in the agricultural sector, and to supply statistics on occupational accidents in this sector.

In its reply, the Government states that the Ministry of Employment and Social Affairs has sent letters to the Federation of Chambers of Agriculture and to the Moroccan Union for Agriculture to draw their attention to the importance of complying with the provisions of the law that concern occupational accidents, and the need to officially notify occupational accidents in the agricultural sector. Furthermore, agricultural labour law inspectors conduct daily visits to supervise application of the Labour Code, including its provisions on occupational accidents. The Government adds that, according to the national survey on the active population in the agricultural sector, carried out in 1986-87, the number of workers employed in agriculture is 380,264, and that under the existing legislation, all workers in the agricultural sector are subject to the occupational accident compensation scheme. While noting this information, the Committee asks the Government to state in its next report the number of occupational accidents that have occurred in the agricultural sector, the number of victims who have been compensated, and the amount of benefits granted in the event of incapacity, invalidity or death of a worker as a result of such an accident.
