Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1992, Publicación: 79ª reunión CIT (1992)

Convenio sobre la inspección del trabajo, 1947 (núm. 81) - Irlanda (Ratificación : 1951)

In its previous observation, the Committee noted the new arrangements for a National Authority under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act, 1989; and it asked for information as to how the Convention is given practical effect through the Act. The Committee now notes from the brief report that a detailed annual inspection report will be submitted as soon as possible.

Articles 10(a) and 16 of the Convention. Please indicate how, in practice, the strength of the inspection services has been affected by the implementation of the 1989 Act and the resulting reorganisation of inspection activities, particularly in light of the enlarged scope of the Act.

Article 14. Please indicate the provision obliging the notification of industrial accidents and cases of occupational disease to the labour inspectorate.

Articles 20 and 21. The Committee notes that no annual report of the inspection service has been sent to the ILO. It hopes that the reports due will now be transmitted and that they will take into consideration the requirements of the Convention.
