Articles 1 and 2(3) and (4) of the Convention. Raising the minimum age for admission to employment. The Committee welcomes Ministerial Decision No. 260-2019, which provides that the General Labour Inspectorate shall issue authorizations for young persons to be engaged in employment from the age of 15 years. It also notes the Government’s indication that in April 2022 the Legislation and Labour Policy Subcommission of the National Tripartite Committee on Labour Relations and Freedom of Association adopted a tripartite decision that the Government would submit a draft legislative initiative to raise the minimum age for admission to employment to 15 years of age. The Committee encourages the Government to continue taking the necessary measures to raise the minimum age for admission to employment from 14 to 15 years, and requests it to continue providing information on progress made in this respect.
