Article 3. National policy. In its previous comment, the Committee noted the Government’s indication that its policy to improve the conditions of work of homeworkers was based on ongoing controls and inspections of employers, foremen and intermediaries who hire homeworkers, and that the Bill amending the Home Work Act (No. 12713) of 29 September 1941, which was under examination, will make it possible to update the existing legal provisions. It also noted the Government’s reference to the Telework Bill. The Committee notes the Government’s indication in its last report that the draft reform of the Home Work Act has not been adopted for the time being. The Committee requests the Government to keep it informed of any progress made on the adoption of the drafts legislation referred to above.

Articles 4(2)(c) and 7. Equality of treatment in relation to protection in the field of occupational safety and health. Application of safety and health laws and regulations to homeworkers.

The Committee requests the Government to state whether the occupational safety and health legislation provides for equal treatment for homeworkers and other wage earners, and whether this is applied taking into account the special characteristics of home work, in accordance with the abovementioned provisions of the Convention.
