Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 1999, Publicación: 88ª reunión CIT (2000)

The Committee notes with regret that the Government's report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation which read as follows:

In previous observations, the Committee noted that Act No. 2/86 of 5 April 1986 enacting the Labour Code repealed previous legislation which barred the employment of women on underground work but its section 155 provided that supplementary legislation will establish the circumstances or banning of their employment on such work as well as on other work liable to prejudice women's genetic function. The Committee notes that according to the Government's previous report, no progress has yet been achieved in harmonizing legislation with the Convention. It hopes that the necessary measures will be taken by the Government, in accordance with its obligations arising from ratification of the Convention. It requests the Government to communicate information on any new measure in this respect.

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future.
