Repetition

Article 5(g) and (h). Adaptation of work and vocational rehabilitation. The Committee notes that the Government has not provided a specific response to the comments previously raised by the Committee under this Article. The Committee therefore reiterates its request that the Government indicate the measures taken or envisaged, in law and in practice, to ensure that occupational health services promote the adaptation of work to the worker, in accordance with Article 5(g); and contribute to measures of vocational rehabilitation, outside of the measures taken regarding handicapped persons, in accordance with Article 5(h).

Application in practice. The Committee notes the information provided by the Government indicating that public health protection authorities continuously carry out supervision of occupational preventive health care and that occupational health care services have improved and the relevant trend remains positive. The Government indicates that according to supervisory findings in 2009, full occupational preventive health-care services were provided for 65 per cent of employers, while a total lack of occupational preventive health care was only recorded for 2 per cent of employers, compared to 2.5 per cent in 2008. The Committee notes the information that improvements in occupational health care services have also been supported by the creation of numerous private health care facilities providing occupational health care within an extent corresponding to the Convention. The Committee asks the Government to continue to provide information on the application of the Convention in practice.
