Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2014, published 104th ILC session (2015)

Weekly Rest (Industry) Convention, 1921 (No. 14) - Iraq (Ratification: 1960)

Article 5 of the Convention. Total or partial exceptions. Compensatory rest. The Committee requests the Government to refer to its latest comments made under Articles 8 and 11 of the Weekly Rest (Commerce and Offices) Convention, 1957 (No. 106).

Article 7. Notices and rosters. The Committee had noted in its previous comment that section 101(1) of the draft new Labour Code, as it read in the text transmitted to the Office in July 2010, contained a relevant provision and required the employer to post in an apparent location at the workplace the internal regulations of the enterprise specifying the working hours and rest periods, provided that a copy was sent to the labour inspection committee. In this connection, the Committee understands that new discussions were initiated in January 2014 before the Parliament in order to adopt the new Labour Code and that they are still ongoing. The Committee therefore requests the Government to continue to provide information on the progress made in connection with the adoption of the new Labour Code and to indicate whether section 101(1) has been maintained in the final text, and to transmit a copy of the new Labour Code once it is adopted.
