Article 3(2) of the Convention. Determination of hazardous work. In its previous comments, the Committee noted the Government’s information that the list of types of hazardous work prohibited to children under 18 years would be made available with the new Labour Code and requested the Government to provide a copy of the list once it was adopted.
The Committee notes with satisfaction that Annex IV of the Labour Code No. 6/2019 provides for a list of hazardous types of work prohibited to children under 18 years, pursuant to section 274(3). The list contains 48 hazardous activities in various sectors including agriculture, livestock and forestry; fishing; mines and quarries; industrial establishments; the production and distribution of electricity and water; construction; transport and storage; health and social services; collective, social, personal and other services; as well as four types of work harmful to morality. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the application in practice of section 274(3) and Annex IV of the Labour Code No. 6/2019 containing the list of hazardous types of work prohibited to children under the age of 18 years, including statistics on the number and nature of violations reported and penalties imposed.
The Committee is raising other matters in a request addressed directly to the Government.
