Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2009, publiée 99ème session CIT (2010)

Convention (n° 22) sur le contrat d'engagement des marins, 1926 - Iraq (Ratification: 1966)

The Government indicates in its report that measures to ensure compliance with the Convention fall within the mandate of the Ministry of Transport, and that it has neither observations on the Convention nor obstacles to report, since the subject matter is regulated by the Civil Maritime Service Act No. 201 of 1975. In the absence of further relevant information, the Committee sees itself obliged to revert to the points it had already raised in its previous direct request.

Article 5 of the Convention. Record of employment. The Committee hopes that the Government will soon be in a position to:

(i)    describe the format of the document containing a record of the seafarer’s employment on board the vessel, the particulars recorded in it and the manner in which such particulars are entered, as determined by national law; and

(ii)   communicate a sample of the document.
