Sessional Paper No. 01 of 1995 on International Labour Organization: Proposed Actions on the Conventions and Recommendations Adopted by the International Labour Conference at the 65th to 80th Sessions (1993)

Abstract

This Convention revises the Protection Against Accidents (Dockers) Convention (Revised) No. 32 of 1932. It provides improved protection for dock workers who are now exposed to increasing Occupational Safety and Health Hazards caused by rapid technological changes in dock-work. The instrument provides more details on technical and administrative measures required to secure safety and health of dock-workers than those contained in the 1932 Convention.
