Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2003, published 92nd ILC session (2004)

Weekly Rest (Commerce and Offices) Convention, 1957 (No. 106) - Saudi Arabia (Ratification: 1978)

Article 8, paragraph 3, of the Convention. The Committee notes that the new Labour Code, which is supposed to ensure the granting of a compensatory rest period for work carried out on a weekly rest day, is still in preparation. The Committee hopes that the new Labour Code, which the Government announced for several years, will be enacted in the near future in order to give full effect to the provisions of the Convention. It asks the Government to supply a copy of the relevant text to the Office as soon as possible.
