Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1990, published 77th ILC session (1990)

Labour Inspection (Agriculture) Convention, 1969 (No. 129) - Portugal (Ratification: 1983)

Articles 17 and 19, paragraph 1, of the Convention. The Committee notes that the Regulations concerning Occupational Health and Safety which, according to the information provided by the Government in its 1987 report, are to give effect to these provisions of the Convention, are still in the process of being drafted. It trusts that the Government will not fail to take appropriate measures to ensure that the Regulations are adopted shortly.

Article 18, paragraph 4. The Committee takes note of the Government's statement that the comments on the application of this provision of the Convention, contained in its previous direct request, will be taken into account. It therefore reiterates the hope that section 50(2) of Decree No. 327/83 to establish the conditions of service of the general labour inspectorate will be completed so as to provide that the results of inspection visits shall be communicated to the representatives of the workers.
