Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2013, published 103rd ILC session (2014)

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

The Committee notes 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:

Repetition

Article 2(3)(a) of the Convention. Public holidays not to be included in annual holidays. The Committee again requests the Government to take the necessary steps to ensure that public and customary holidays are not included in the number of days of annual holiday with pay to which workers are entitled under the national legislation.

Article 7. Record keeping. The Committee recalls that, in order to facilitate the effective application of the Convention, every employer is required to keep, in a form approved by the competent authority, a record showing: (a) the date of entry into his/her service of each person employed by him/her and the duration of the annual holiday with pay to which each such person is entitled; (b) the dates at which the annual holiday with pay is taken by each person; and (c) the remuneration received by each person in respect of the period of his or her annual holiday with pay. The Committee requests the Government to indicate the legal provisions whereby employers are required to keep such records and to provide a specimen of employers’ records as approved by the competent authorities.
