Articles 4 and 6 of the Convention. Total or partial exceptions. Further to its previous comment, the Committee notes the Government’s indication that workers who have to work on Friday, due to production needs or other economic and business considerations, must be granted another day off and be paid at 1.5 times the normal wage rate. The Committee also notes that the application of by-law No. H2729T/56392 of 27 January 2003 has not been extended for another three-year period, and, as a result, the statutory exception for workshops with less than ten workers was lifted so that the Labour Code is now uniformly applied to such workshops as well. The Committee wishes to recall that in view of the importance of the weekly rest for the workers’ health and well-being, any exceptions to the general 24-hour weekly rest rule must be in compliance with the conditions set out in the Convention (i.e. account taken of all social and economic considerations, and employers’ and workers’ organizations properly consulted) and recourse to such exceptions should be kept to what is strictly necessary. The Committee accordingly requests the Government to provide, as required under Article 6 of the Convention, a full list of the categories of workers and types of establishment which are currently subject to permanent or temporary derogations from the standard weekly rest scheme.
