Convenio sobre la protección de la maquinaria, 1963 (núm. 119) - Dinamarca (Ratificación : 1989)

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the following matters raised in its previous direct request:

1. The Committee noted the Government's statement that the unusual nature of its report was due to the new procedure established under European Directive EEC/91/368. The Committee recalls the obligation of member States, under article 22 of the Constitution of the ILO, to make reports on the measures which they have taken to give effect to the provisions of the Conventions to which they are party in the form indicated by the Governing Body of the ILO. The Committee requests the Government to provide detailed information on each of the Articles of the Convention, on the provisions of the legislation and regulations referred to by the Government and on any other measures related to the application of these Articles.

2. Article 2, paragraph 4, of the Convention. The Committee noted that section 3(4)(2) of Notice No. 2.2.0.1 on machinery and plants provides for the shielding with appropriate safeguards of a number of dangerous parts of machines, including flywheels, gears, rollers, cylinders, pulleys, belt drives and chains. The Committee requests the Government to indicate the measures taken to guard the other parts mentioned in this provision, including set-screws, bolts, keys, cams, pinions, crank arms and side blocks.
