Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1999, Publicación: 88ª reunión CIT (2000)

Convenio sobre las horas de trabajo (comercio y oficinas), 1930 (núm. 30) - Luxemburgo (Ratificación : 1958)

The Committee notes the last report of the Government on the application of the Convention, and wishes to draw its attention to the following point:

Article 7, paragraph 4, of the Convention. The Committee notes that section 19 of the General Conditions of Service of the State and Public Service stipulates that compensation in the form of a higher rate of pay is only payable to public servants who work additional hours as of the eighth additional hour worked. In this connection the Committee wishes to recall that under Article 7, paragraph 4, of the Convention, the rate of pay in cases of temporary exceptions to normal hours of work shall not be less than one-and-a-quarter times the regular rate, and that this provision must apply to the staff of public and private establishments in agreement with Article 1 of the Convention. Consequently, the Committee asks the Government to take the requisite measures to render its legislation compatible with the requirements of the Convention and, where appropriate, to inform the International Labour Organization of progress achieved in this regard.
