Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 2005, publiée 95ème session CIT (2006)

Convention (n° 30) sur la durée du travail (commerce et bureaux), 1930 - Guatemala (Ratification: 1961)

The Committee notes the comments communicated by the Trade Union of Workers of Guatemala (UNSITRAGUA) on 2 June 2005 providing information on the categories of civil servants in the judicial system and auxiliary staff of law courts covered by, or excluded from, the scope of application of the Convention in accordance with the Law of Civil Servants in the Judicial System (Decree No. 48-99) and the Law on Judicial Career (Decree No. 41-99). The Committee hopes that the Government in its next report will reply to these observations as well as to two other observations communicated by UNSITRAGUA in October 2002 and August 2003 concerning unpaid or otherwise non-compensated overtime work, especially in bank offices and the judiciary. The Committee also hopes that the Government will provide a detailed response to the points raised in its previous observation concerning the application of the Convention.
