The Committee notes with deep concern that the Government’s report, due since 2013, has not been received. In light of its urgent appeals launched to the Government in 2019 and 2020, the Committee proceeds with the examination of the application of this Convention on the basis of the information at its disposal.
Following its examination of the information at its disposal, the Committee notes that it is still missing important information on measures giving effect to Articles 4 and 5 of the Convention. The Committee is therefore bound to repeat its previous comments with regard to those Articles.
Articles 4 and 5 of the Convention. While recalling that in an earlier report the Government had indicated that the exceptions provided for in this Article do not exist in principle, the Committee wishes to observe that under modern conditions there is often a real need to keep certain establishments in operation on the day of weekly rest by reason of the nature of their activities (such as hospitals, continuous processes), or in exceptional cases (for example, major accidents, force majeure or urgent repair work). It therefore requests the Government to specify how effect is given to these Articles of the Convention, including the requirement to grant, as far as possible, compensatory rest to those performing work on their weekly rest day.
