Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2011, published 101st ILC session (2012)

Chemicals Convention, 1990 (No. 170) - Syrian Arab Republic (Ratification: 2006)

The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its reports, and the attached documentation. It notes the information that Ministerial Order No. 269 of 1977 has been repealed by the promulgation of the Labour Code (Act No. 17 of 2010) and the instructions putting it into effect. The Committee notes with interest the adoption of Ministerial Order No. 28 of 2010 which appears to give effect to many provisions of the Convention. This text was not, however attached to the report. The Committee asks the Government to supply a copy of Ministerial Order No. 28 of 2010 in order to enable the Committee to determine the extent to which the Convention is applied in the country.

[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2012.]
