The Committee notes the Government's report in reply to its previous comments.
It notes that the higher rates of remuneration applied to overtime hours under Order No. 1382 of 12 November 1953, in contradiction with the Convention, were corrected by Order No. 75.3555 of 28 February 1975.
However, the Committee wishes to remind the Government of the other points also raised in its previous direct requests and once again asks it to provide the requested information.
Article 6 of the Convention. The Committee noted, with reference to paragraph 1(b), that section 6(2) of Order No. 1283 of 23 October 1953 authorized extensions of hours of work either for seasonal work, or because of the need to maintain or increase production, or because of a shortage of labour, whereas the Convention provides for temporary exceptions only to enable establishments to deal with exceptional cases of pressure of work. It therefore requested the Government to examine the possibility of adopting measures to restrict the circumstances in which such exceptions are possible to the cases provided for by the Convention. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide full information on the measures which have been taken in this respect, as well as to ensure that employers' and workers' organizations are consulted before the adoption of the regulations referred to in Article 6.
Article 8. The Committee also requests the Government to provide information on the manner in which effect is given to paragraph 1(c) (the recording of all additional hours worked) and paragraph 2 (illegality of exceeding the hours of work notified).
Finally, the Committee requests the Government to provide information on the preliminary draft texts of (a) the Bill to issue regulations respecting conditions of work, and (b) the Order issuing regulations respecting hours of work, to which reference was made in the report for the period ending 30 June 1987.
