Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 2004, publiée 93ème session CIT (2005)

Convention (n° 1) sur la durée du travail (industrie), 1919 - Roumanie (Ratification: 1921)

The Committee notes the Government’s comments to the observations made by the Bloc National Syndical (BNS) concerning the application of the Convention in practice. It notes the Government’s statement that there are currently no specific sanctions for the violation of legal provisions relating to the maximum hours of work allowed per day. It further notes that the Labour Inspectorate will propose legislation to amend Act No. 53/2003 in order to enable the inspectorate to impose fines for violations on provisions regulating hours of work, thus bringing the national legislation in line with Article 8, paragraph 2, of the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to keep it informed about any progress made in this respect. It also asks the Government to provide the information requested in its last direct request, which is reproduced separately.
