The Committee notes the information contained in the Government’s last report and the attached documentation.

Article 6, paragraph 1(a), and Article 7, paragraph 1(c), of the Convention. Further to its previous comments regarding the Government’s long-announced intention to regulate hours worked on preparatory and complementary work outside the limits set for ordinary work, the Committee notes that a draft Ministerial Order has now been prepared and is currently reviewed by a tripartite technical committee. The Committee notes, in particular, the permanent and temporary exceptions set out in sections 4, 5 and 6 of the draft Ministerial Order and further understands that the provisions of sections 67 and 69 of Federal Law No. 8 of 1980 concerning overtime pay and the maximum additional hours also apply to longer work schedules authorized under the draft Ministerial Order. The Committee asks the Government to keep it informed of all further developments regarding the adoption of the Ministerial Order and to transmit a copy of the new text once it is finalized.

Article 8, paragraph 1(c). The Committee notes that the draft Ministerial Order for the regulation of complementary, preparatory and emergency work makes no provision for the maintenance of appropriate records in an approved form of all additional hours of work performed, as required under this Article of the Convention. The Committee therefore requests the Government to take the necessary steps so that the draft Ministerial Order, in its final wording, be fully consistent with the relevant provisions of the Convention.
