Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2018, Publicación: 108ª reunión CIT (2019)

Convenio sobre la edad mínima, 1973 (núm. 138) - Israel (Ratificación : 1979)

Article 7(1) and (3) of the Convention. Light work and the determination of these types of activities. The Committee previously noted that section 2(c) of Youth Labour Law No. 5713-1953, provides that the Minister of Labour and Social Welfare may, in general or in specific cases, permit the employment of a child who is 14 years old and in respect of whom exemption has been granted from attending school.

The Committee once again notes the Government’s indication that the regulations determining light work activities have not yet been formalized. The Committee requests the Government to take the necessary measures to ensure that the regulations determining the activities permitted as light work and the number of working hours allowed in this type of employment in accordance with Article 7(3) of the Convention are finalized soon. It requests the Government to provide information on any progress made in this regard and to supply a copy of the regulations once they have been adopted.
