Convenio sobre los servicios de salud en el trabajo, 1985 (núm. 161) - Luxemburgo (Ratificación : 2008)

Article 3 of the Convention. Progressive development of occupational health services for all workers. The Committee notes the Government’s first report providing detailed information and it notes with interest the information that occupational health services have been operational in Luxembourg since January 1995 for all workers in the private sector and since 2004 for the public sector. In the private sector, there are three major types of occupational health services: (1) inter-enterprise services organized by sector; (2) enterprise health services; and (3) a compulsory multi-sectoral health service covering all enterprises which have not opted for one of the first two solutions. It also notes the practical information provided indicating, among other matters, that occupational health has become an indispensable link in the system of medical supervision of the active population, as in 44 per cent of cases the occupational physician is the only doctor consulted during the year.
