Convenio sobre la edad mínima, 1973 (núm. 138) - Eswatini (Ratificación : 2002)

Part V of the report form. Application of the Convention in practice. The Committee previously noted the Government’s indication that the labour inspection management system was in the process of being computerized and that the data on child labour would be compiled and kept thereafter.

The Committee notes the Government’s information that, due to lack of resources, the labour inspection management system is not operational, and that data is still being compiled manually. It notes, however, the Government’s indication that the Labour Force Survey is currently being conducted and that this survey includes questions on the employment of children. In addition, the Government indicates that the Central Statistical Office is being assisted by the ILO in order to conduct a fully fledged survey on child labour. The Committee requests the Government to supply the results of the Labour Force Survey pertaining to the employment of children, as well as the results of the survey on child labour, once completed. It also requests the Government to provide a general appreciation of the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice, including extracts from inspection services reports, and information on the number and nature of contraventions reported.
