Articles 7(2) and 8(3) of the Convention. Compensatory rest. The Committee notes that Legislative Decree No. 14.320 of 17 December 1974 provides for a period of compensatory rest of 36 consecutive hours in commercial establishments. However, the Committee notes that, under the terms of section 5 of Legislative Decree No. 14.320 and section 1(3) of Act No. 15.996 of 17 November 1988 on overtime hours, as well as sections 5, 6 and 10 of Decree No. 550/989 of 12 December 1989, a worker employed during the period of weekly rest shall receive financial compensation. The Committee recalls that the Convention requires that a period of compensatory rest of a total duration at least equivalent to 24 hours be granted when exemptions to weekly rest are authorized. The Committee therefore requests the Government to specify the manner in which compensatory rest is guaranteed, irrespective of any financial compensation which may be offered, in cases in which such exemptions do not allow workers to benefit from a weekly rest period of at least 24 consecutive hours, as required by Articles 7(2) and 8(3) of the Convention.
