Articles 2 and 3 of the Convention. Prohibition of night work of women. In its previous comment, the Committee noted the partial relaxation of the prohibition concerning women’s night work and invited the Government to consider favourably the ratification of the Night Work Convention, 1990 (No. 171), and the denunciation of the obsolete Night Work (Women) Convention, 1919 (No. 4). In its latest report, the Government explains that following recent constitutional amendments, the power to legislate on labour issues as well as the full responsibility for labour administration have been transferred to the provinces. The Government accordingly indicates that the issues of ratification of Convention No. 171 and denunciation of Convention No. 4 have been referred to the provinces for deliberation in tripartite meetings with representative employers’ and workers’ organizations and that any action in this regard will be initiated in the light of recommendations received from the provinces. While noting the need for tripartite consultations at the provincial level, the Committee again encourages the Government to ratify Convention No. 171, which focuses on the safety and health protection of all night workers irrespective of gender, and to terminate its obligations under the outdated Convention No. 4. The Committee requests the Government to keep the Office informed of any further developments in this regard.
