Articles 7 and 8 of the Convention. Permanent and temporary exemptions – Compensatory rest. Further to its previous comments on section 16(2) of the Organization of Working Time Act which provides that, in case of deviations from the regular weekly rest scheme, compensatory rest may, under certain circumstances, be replaced by other suitable protection, the Committee notes that the Government, in its report, indicates that the Ministry of Labour and Social Insurance will re-examine the relevant provisions of the Organization of Working Time Law in collaboration with the social partners and other competent authorities. The Committee recalls that under Articles 7(2) and 8(3) of the Convention, granting compensatory rest of a total duration equivalent to the period provided for under Article 6 is an absolute requirement and must be granted in all cases of authorized exceptions to the basic 24-hour weekly rest rule. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the measures adopted to ensure that compensatory rest is granted, without exception, whenever deviations from the ordinary weekly rest scheme are authorized. The Committee also requests the Government to provide information on the application in practice of section 16(2) of the Organization of Working Time Act, including the number of cases in which workers working during their weekly rest period are not granted compensatory rest and the type of other suitable protection they are offered in these cases.
