Convenio sobre el descanso semanal (industria), 1921 (núm. 14) - Groenlandia

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:

Article 4 of the Convention. The Committee notes that sections 53(3) and (4), 54, 55 and 56 of the Working Environment Act permit certain exceptions to the rule guaranteeing a weekly rest period of 24 hours. The Committee asks the Government to provide information in future reports on the practical application of these exceptions, and on any consultations with responsible associations of employers and workers in this connection.

Article 7. The Committee notes the Government's indication that due to the limited number of inspection staff it is difficult to ensure effective control of compliance with the weekly rest legislation. The Government is asked to provide information on the means used to ensure that days of rest are made known in accordance with the Convention.

Please also include in future reports available information on the organization and working of inspection (Part III of the report form).
