Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2003, Publicación: 92ª reunión CIT (2004)

The Committee notes the Government’s report in reply to its observation.

Article 2, paragraph 1, of the Convention. It notes in particular that the new Labour Code, which the Government has announced for many years, was recently adopted by Parliament and shall be transmitted to the Office as soon as it is gazetted.

The Committee hopes that the new Labour Code applies satisfactorily the provisions of the Convention, which have given rise to comments for a number of years. In particular, it trusts that establishments which were excluded under the Order of 7 August 1946 are now included in the scope of the new Labour Code and furthermore, that account has been taken of the comments by the Committee in determining, in strict conformity with Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Convention, the circumstances allowing an increase of daily hours of work.

[The Government is asked to report in detail in 2004.]
