In order to provide a comprehensive view of the issues relating to the application of the ratified Conventions on working time, the Committee considers it appropriate to examine Conventions Nos 1 (hours of work in commerce and offices), 14 (weekly rest in industry) and 30 (hours of rest in commerce and offices) together.

The Committee notes with deep concern that the Government’s report, due since 2008, has not been received. In the light of its urgent appeals launched to the Government in 2019 and 2020, the Committee proceeds with the examination of the application of the Conventions on the basis of the information at its disposal.

Legislative developments. The Committee notes that, according to the information available on the Government’s official website, in October 2021 the full Senate approved the final text of the draft General Labour Act. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the development of the situation in this regard and to provide a copy of the new General Labour Act, once adopted, as well as any relevant legislative or other information relating to the application of the Conventions.

[The Government is asked to reply in full to the present comments in 2022.]
