Referring to its observation, the Committee would also like to draw the Government’s attention to the following points.
Articles 4 and 10 of the Convention. Changes in the organization of the labour inspection system, number of labour inspectors. The Committee understands that the revised version of the Organic Labour Code of May 2012 (LOTTT No. 6076) has led to changes in the organization of the labour inspectorate and the functions entrusted to labour inspection staff. While the Government indicated in its report that there are 45 supervisory units exercising control of compliance of labour legislation and affiliated with the labour inspectorates of the MINPPTRASS, after the coming into force of the revised LOTTT, the regional structure of the labour inspection system seems now to be made up of labour inspectorates and labour sub-inspectorates. Labour inspectorates are competent to issue administrative orders and the subordinate labour sub-inspectorates are competent to receive complaints from workers and supervise compliance with labour legislation in workplaces. Furthermore, the LOTTT establishes a unit in each labour inspectorate composed of legal professionals to provide free legal advice and assistance to workers who require legal assistance or representation. The Committee understands from the comments on the application of other Conventions made by the Independent Trade Union Alliance (ASI) in a communication dated 14 August 2012 that the revised the Organic Labour Code of May 2012 (LOTTT No. 6076), will be supplemented by relevant implementing regulations. The Committee asks the Government to provide information on any implementing regulations issued under the revised LOTTT or any other legislative text on the structure, organization, functioning, purpose and impact of the restructuring of the labour inspection services and to provide copies relating to these texts.
Please also provide up-to-date information on the number and geographical distribution of labour inspectors by rank and grade throughout the structures of the labour inspection services, including at the labour inspectorates and labour sub-inspectorates, and their fields of specialization.
