Maternity Protection Convention (Revised), 1952 (No. 103) - Libya (Ratification: 1975)

Article 1 of the Convention. Coverage. The Committee takes note of the indication provided by the Government in reply to its previous comments, that the maternity protection coverage of teachers, health workers, municipal guards, customs officers, and employees of institutions is regulated by special laws, pursuant to section 4 of the Labour Relations Act (No. 12). These provisions, however, have not been provided by the Government which prevents the Committee from assessing the conformity of the maternity protection afforded to the above-mentioned categories of workers with the requirements of the Convention. The Committee therefore requests once again the Government toprovidethe special laws regulating the maternity protection coverage of the teachers, health workers, municipal guards, customs officers, and employees of institutions,and an explanation of how they give effect to the provisions of the Convention.
