Convention (n° 81) sur l'inspection du travail, 1947 - Guernesey

Article 15(c) of the Convention. Confidentiality in relation to complaints. The Committee requests the Government to indicate the manner in which it is ensured that, in order to avoid possible reprisals by the employer against workers, labour inspectors treat as absolutely confidential the source of any complaint bringing to their notice any defect or breach of legal provisions and give no intimation to the employer or his or her representative that a visit of inspection was made in consequence of the receipt of such a complaint. It also requests the Government to indicate any exceptions to such obligation.

Articles 20 and 21. Annual reports on the work of the labour inspection services. The Committee notes the statistical data on the inspection visits made and on permits and licences issued by the Health and Safety Executive in 2005 and 2006. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would continue to supply such information and ensure that it will be included in an annual report on the work of labour inspection services, as prescribed under the above provisions.
