Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2012, published 102nd ILC session (2013)

Workmen's Compensation (Agriculture) Convention, 1921 (No. 12) - Democratic Republic of the Congo (Ratification: 1960)

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

Repetition

Part V of the report form. Application of the Convention in practice. The Committee notes that the Government’s report reproduces the information provided in relation to the previous reporting period without providing information on the manner in which the national legislation respecting accidents is applied in practice. With reference to the comments that it has made under Convention No. 121 with regard to matters related to employment accident and occupational disease benefits, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide general information in its next report on the manner in which the legislation applicable to employment accidents is applied in agriculture (extracts from official reports, information on the number and nature of the violations reported, etc.), as well as any indication of any practical difficulties encountered in the application of the Convention.
