Article 11 of the Convention. Implementing measures. Further to its previous comment, the Committee notes the Government’s indication that it is in the process of revising the Labour Code and that section 14 will be amended to provide for equality of rights between full-time and part-time workers as a general principle, while a further provision will be added to require employers to inform part-time employees of any full-time vacancies and to provide equal opportunities to them when filling those vacancies. While noting these developments, the Committee recalls that the Convention requires under Article 4 measures to ensure that part-time workers receive the same protection as full-time workers in respect of freedom of association, occupational safety and health and protection against discrimination. The Convention also calls under Article 7 for measures to ensure that part-time workers receive conditions equivalent (i.e. not necessarily identical provided that they ensure not less favourable treatment) to those of full-time workers in respect of employment rights such as maternity protection, paid annual leave and sick leave. Moreover, the Convention permits under Article 8 part-time workers to be excluded from the coverage of statutory social security schemes, if their hours of work or level of earnings are below specified thresholds, except as regards employment injury benefits. Recalling that the Convention may be implemented through laws or regulations or by means of collective agreements or in any other manner consistent with national practice, the Committee requests the Government to indicate in its next report how effect is given to the specific provisions of the Convention highlighted above and to transmit a copy of any relevant texts that may not have been previously communicated to the Office.
