Law and practice are summarized in a report based on the report form approved by the Governing Body, which is sent to the Office.

Written by marco@vg59.it on . Posted in Article 19, Governments prepare and send reports, Regular Supervision.

The Governing Body approves a form to be used by governments for reporting on the instruments previously selected under article 19 of the ILO Constitution for the preparation of a General Survey. This is usually done at its March session. The request for governments’ reports is usually issued by the Office in September, and governments are requested to send their reports to the Office by 28 February the following year at the latest. The relevant report form is attached to the request. It also contains questions related to the impact of the instruments covered, the prospects of ratification and needs for technical assistance.

The report forms are available in the NORMLEX database, where it is also possible to see the lists of reports requested for General Surveys in the country profiles.

Copies of the requests for reports are sent to the representative organizations of employers and workers.

The Office checks that the reports contain all the replies, information and documentation requested. If they do not, the Office will, without entering into the substance of the matter, ask governments to send them.

If the Office receives observations directly from employers’ and workers’ organizations, it acknowledges receipt and simultaneously forwards a copy to the government concerned, so that it might respond.
