The Committee notes the observations communicated by the Turkish Confederation of Employers Associations (TISK) and the Turkish Confederation of Public Worker Associations (Kamu-Sen Turkey). The Government has not, as yet, commented on these observations.

The Committee has repeatedly noted, in its previous observations, comments received from workers’ organizations alleging inadequate monitoring of the application of the Convention due to the low number of inspections. Furthermore, these inspections do not cover all categories of workers. The same allegations have been raised again by Kamu-Sen. The Committee requests the Government to respond to the observations made and to provide information on how it aims to ensure that adequate numbers of inspections are carried out annually and to all workers covered under the present Convention.

The Committee also notes the statistics provided in the Government’s report of 2003. The number of general inspections and "control" inspections carried out significantly decreased in the years 2001 and 2002 in comparison to the year 2000. It requests the Government to clarify why there was a decrease in the number of inspections carried out in 2001 and 2002 and requests the Government to provide, in accordance with Part V of the report form, available extracts from the reports of the inspection services and to provide information, in particular, on the number and nature of contraventions reported on issues concerning the weekly rest.

The Committee further notes the comments made by TISK that no disputes have arisen out of the implementation of the weekly rest in workplaces and that collective agreements generally envisage that workers who work on the weekly rest day are paid three times the daily wage. The Government may want to draw the attention of the social partners to Article 5 of the Convention, which states that, as far as possible, provisions shall be made for compensatory periods of rest for suspensions or diminutions to the weekly rest.

In addition, requests regarding certain points are being addressed directly to the Government.
