The right to just and favourable conditions of work (Art. 7) 2016, para. 54
Paragraphe- Paragraph text
- In order to ensure accountability, States parties should establish a functioning system of labour inspectorates, with the involvement of social partners, to monitor all aspects of the right to just and favourable conditions of work for all workers, including workers in the informal economy, domestic workers and agricultural workers; to provide advice to workers and employers; and to raise any abuses with competent authorities. Labour inspectorates should be independent and adequately resourced; staffed with trained professionals; able to rely on specialists and medical experts; and have the authority to enter workplaces freely and without prior notice, make recommendations to prevent or remedy problems and facilitate access to justice for victims. Penalties should apply for non compliance with their recommendations. Labour inspectorates should focus on monitoring the rights of workers and not be used for other purposes, such as checking the migration status of workers.
