Convention (n° 45) des travaux souterrains (femmes), 1935 - Argentine (Ratification: 1950)

With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes the Government’s report, according to which, although the Safety and Health in Mines Convention, 1995 (No. 176), has not been ratified, Decree No. 249/07 issuing regulations on safety and health in mining, published in the Boletín Oficial of the State on 23 March 2007, has been issued and, according to the report, sets out most of the standards envisaged in Convention No. 176. If the Government should consider the ratification of the latter Convention and the denunciation of Convention No. 45, the Committee recalls that, according to established practice, the next period open for the denunciation of Convention No. 45 will be from 30 May 2017 to 30 May 2018. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on any developments with regard to the intention to ratify Convention No. 176, including any requirement for technical assistance.
