Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2006, publiée 96ème session CIT (2007)

Convention (n° 19) sur l'égalité de traitement (accidents du travail), 1925 - Sainte-Lucie (Ratification: 1980)

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:

The Committee notes the special agreements that have been concluded with CARICOM and OECS territories, as well as with Canada, in order to facilitate reciprocity. These agreements are now reflected in the National Legislation (Acts Nos. 5, 12, 13 and 14 of 2001). The Committee requests the Government to communicate copies of these Acts.

The Committee would also be grateful if the Government would provide, in accordance with Part V of the report form, information on the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice, including statistics on the number and nationality of foreign workers employed in Saint Lucia, the number of accidents involving these workers and the payment of compensation due to them or their dependants in the event of residence abroad, both for States with which Saint Lucia has concluded a reciprocity agreement and for any other States.
