Article 3(c) of the Convention. In response to the Committee's previous comments concerning women employees who do not fulfil the conditions of entitlement to maternity benefits under the Social Security Fund, the Government again refers to section 107 of the Labour Code, which obliges the employer to provide the benefits or part of the benefits not covered by the Fund.

The Committee recalls that, according to this provision of the Convention, maternity benefits must be provided either out of public funds or by means of a system of insurance. Under these circumstances, the Committee hopes that the Government will indicate in its next report progress achieved to ensure the application of this provision of the Convention as well as with regard to women who are unable to fulfil the conditions in respect of the qualifying period laid down under section 44 of Legislative Decree No. 14 of 1954.
