Motherhood, 1952, was adopted by the General Conference of the International Organization of the

Work, at its 88 th Session, held in Geneva, on June 15, 2000.

Convention No 183 on the Revision of the Convention (Revista) on the Protection of the

Maternity, 1952, proceeds to the revision of the Convention No 103 on the Protection of the

Motherhood (Revista in 1952), adopted by the International Labour Conference, in the

by the Decree of Government No 63/84, published in 1ª series of the Journal of the Republic n. 235, of

October 10, 1984.

Being the protection of motherhood an important strand of the social policy of the Republic

motherhood, broadening its field of application, both with respect to people

covered, as for guaranteed protection, specifically in the matter of licence of

maternity, social protection, protection in employment and non-discrimination.

The Portuguese legal order gives already compliance with all the principles of the Convention

n. 183 on the Review of the Convention (Revista) on the Protection of Maternity, 1952.

Thus:

Under the terms of the paragraph d) of Article 197 (1) of the Constitution, the Government presents to the

Assembly of the Republic the following motion for a resolution:
