Article 1 of the Convention. Scope of application – Homeworkers. Following up on its previous comment, the Committee understands that there are currently no legal provisions which would entitle homeworkers – who are excluded from the scope of application of the Labour Code – to the right to annual holidays with pay. The Committee accordingly requests the Government to take steps to regulate the right to annual holidays with pay of homeworkers.

Articles 2 and 4. Exclusion of absence due to sickness from annual leave – Postponement of annual holidays. The Committee recalls its previous comment, in which it noted the absence of express legal provisions to ensure (i) that no interruptions of attendance at work due to sickness may be included in the annual holiday with pay, and (ii) that only the part of the annual holiday exceeding the minimum provided for by the Convention (that is, six working days after one year of service) may be deferred. In the absence of any new information, the Committee again requests the Government to indicate the measures taken or envisaged in order to bring the national legislation into conformity with the requirements of the Convention in this regard.
