Article 1 of the Convention. Implementing legislation. The Committee recalls that in its previous comment, it had requested further information concerning the applicable legislation for the following categories of workers: (i) passenger transport services which are provided within the boundaries of a province, irrespective of distance; (ii) intercity passenger transport services covering a distance of up to 100 km; and (iii) passenger transport services which are provided within municipal boundaries and contiguous areas. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that it has not specifically regulated the rest breaks for drivers that are excluded from the scope of application of the Road Transport Regulations, that is, drivers of vehicles of less than 3.5 tons and drivers of vehicles carrying passengers for commercial purposes with transport capacity of less than nine persons, including the driver. Nevertheless, the Government indicates that the applicable rest breaks are regulated by section 7 of the Regulations pertaining to working time, which provides that workers are entitled to rest breaks in accordance with section 68 of the Labour Act.

The Committee accordingly requests the Government to provide more information in this regard, including copies of any relevant legal texts not previously communicated. Further, concerning the rest period which falls, by default in the absence of further regulations, under section 68 of the Labour Act, the Committee wishes to draw the Government’s attention to its most recent comments under the Weekly Rest (Industry) Convention, 1921 (No. 14).

Article 3. Tripartite consultations. The Committee notes the Government’s statement that the Tripartite Consultation Board, which serves as a consultative platform to improve labour peace and industrial relations, does not address working time in road transportation in its agenda. Recalling that this Article of the Convention requires that the representative organizations of employers and workers concerned be consulted by the competent authority, the Committee requests the Government to begin such consultations in the near future, either within the context of the Tripartite Consultation Board or any other national mechanism, and to provide information on any steps taken or envisaged in this respect.
