Statute overview

About this statute

Ratifying ILO members must give certain injured foreign nationals and their dependents the same workmen’s compensation treatment as their own nationals, without a residence condition. The Members concerned may make special agreements about how compensation for certain industrial accidents is handled. Members that ratify the Convention and do not already have an industrial-accident compensation system must set one up within three years of ratification. States ratifying the Convention must cooperate to help apply the Convention and must tell the International Labour Office about changes to workmen’s compensation laws and regulations. Formal ratifications of the Convention are to be communicated to the Director-General of the International Labour Office for registration.
