Convention (n° 79) sur le travail de nuit des adolescents (travaux non industriels), 1946 - Kirghizistan (Ratification: 1992)

Article 3 of the Convention. Night work of young persons under 18 years of age. The Committee had previously noted that under section 193 of the Labour Code, amended by the Act of 18 December 1992, the consent of young persons under the age of 18 is required in order for them to do night work (from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.). Recalling that the Convention does not provide for any exception based on the consent of young people under 18 years of age, the Committee asked the Government to provide information on the measures taken or contemplated to bring this provision of the Labour Code into conformity with the Convention.

The Committee notes with interest that according to section 97 of the Labour Code No. 106 of 2004 as amended, night work (from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.) is prohibited to young persons under the age of 18 years. An exception to this section refers to young persons in artistic performances in theatres, cinemas, concerts, circuses, media or other professional sports and other categories determined by collective agreement and approved by the Government.
