Convention (n° 12) sur la réparation des accidents du travail (agriculture), 1921 - Angola (Ratification: 1976)

With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes from the Government's report that the implementing regulations on compensation for industrial accidents and occupational diseases provided for in section 58 of the Act respecting the social security system, No. 18/90, have not yet been adopted. Referring to its observation under Convention No. 17, the Committee hopes that the Government's next report will contain full information on the progress made towards the adoption of the above-mentioned regulations. It also hopes that such regulations once adopted will give full effect to the Convention. Furthermore, since Article 1 of the Convention provides for the extension to all agricultural wage-earners of the laws and regulations which provide for the compensation of workers for personal injury by accident arising out of or in the course of their employment, the Committee hopes that the new regulations will also cover non-permanent agricultural workers who are excluded for a transitional period by section 85, paragraph 1(a) of Act No. 18/90. Please supply a copy of the above regulations as soon as they are adopted.
