Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2000, Publicación: 89ª reunión CIT (2001)

1.  Article 2, paragraph 2, of the Convention (in conjunction with Article 3, paragraph 2).  In its previous comments, the Committee drew the Government’s attention to the provisions of section 14 of the Civil Code and section 3, paragraph 1, of Legislative Decree No. 84/78 respecting compulsory occupational accident insurance, under which foreign workers are not considered to be in a similar situation to nationals unless there is a reciprocal arrangement with the country of which they are nationals. It also noted the Government’s intention to adopt the measures needed to bring this legislation into conformity with the Convention. The Committee notes that in its last report the Government provides no information on this matter. In these circumstances, it is bound to express once again the hope that the Government will be able in its next report to indicate the adoption of measures for the elimination of any condition of reciprocity laid down in the abovementioned legislation in the sphere of compensation for occupational accidents, in accordance with the Convention.

2.  The Committee notes the Government’s information to the effect that the statistical data requested under Part V of the report form is not available or has not been processed or obtained. In this context, the Committee hopes that once this statistical data has been processed and collected the Government will supply it with its future reports.
