Holidays with Pay Convention, 1936 (No. 52) - Burundi (Ratification: 1971)

The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

Article 2, paragraph 3(a), of the Convention. Public holidays not to be included in annual holidays. The Committee notes that neither the Labour Code of 1993, nor the Statute of Public Servants of 1998 and Decree No. 100/111 of 16 September 1999 on the application of the statute of public servants with regard to holidays, nor Decree No. 100/169 of 12 October 1992 on the list and regulations of public holidays contain any provisions which would ensure that public and customary holidays shall not be included in the annual holidays with pay. It requests the Government to indicate the measures taken or envisaged to give effect to the Convention in this respect.

Article 7. Record keeping. Please provide a specimen of the employer’s record as approved by the competent authority.
