Article 3(2) of the Convention. Determination of types of hazardous work. The Committee previously noted that a list of types of hazardous work prohibited to children under 18 years was developed and awaiting approval from the Minister of Labour and Social Welfare. It also noted that regulations pursuant to section 3(5)(c) of the Labour Act of 2007 permitting the employment of persons of at least 16 years in hazardous work would be developed following the adoption of the list of hazardous work.

The Committee notes the Government’s indication that the list of hazardous work is in its final stage of adoption. The Committee expresses the firm hope that the list of types of hazardous work prohibited to children under 18 years will be adopted in the near future. It requests the Government to provide a copy, once it has been adopted. It also requests the Government to indicate any progress made in the adoption of the regulations pursuant to section 3(5)(c) of the Labour Act.

The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
