Weekly Rest (Commerce and Offices) Convention, 1957 (No. 106) - Djibouti (RATIFICATION: 1978)

CMNT_TITLE

The Committee notes with concern that the Government’s report has not been received. It expects that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous comments.

Repetition

Articles 7 and 8 of the Convention. Permanent and temporary exemptions. Compensatory rest. With reference to its previous comment, the Committee notes the Government’s indication in its last report that a draft order was to be drafted and submitted in April 2014 to the National Council for Labour, Employment and Social Security (CONTESS) for adoption. This order is provided for under section 97 of the Labour Code of 2006 with a view to giving full effect to Articles 7 and 8 of the Convention. The Committee therefore wishes to recall that the Convention allows permanent or temporary exemptions only in the circumstances specifically defined and asks that workers to whom such exemptions apply be granted compensatory rest of a total duration at least equivalent to the weekly rest period of 24 hours. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on any development with regard to the above-mentioned draft order.

Repetition

Articles 7 and 8 of the Convention. Permanent and temporary exemptions – Compensatory rest. The Committee recalls that it has been making comments since 1983 on the application of Article 8(3) of the Convention, particularly with regard to section 11 of Order No. 1545 of 23 December 1953 which appears to authorize the suspension of weekly rest without providing for compensatory rest in certain cases. The Committee notes that, despite the adoption of the Labour Code (Act No. 133/AN/05/5eL of 28 January 2006), no provision specifically provides for the granting of compensatory rest of a minimum duration of 24 consecutive hours in the event that temporary, total or partial exemptions are authorized from the period of weekly rest: (a) in case of accident, actual or threatened, force majeure or urgent work to premises and equipment; (b) in the event of abnormal pressure of work due to special circumstances; and (c) in order to prevent the loss of perishable goods. However, the Committee notes that section 97 of the Labour Code provides for the adoption of an order upon the proposal of the minister responsible for labour, after seeking the opinion of the National Labour, Employment and Vocational Training Council (CNTEFP), in order to determine the arrangements governing weekly rest for certain occupations and the conditions for granting such rest on a day other than Friday, or by individual or collective rotation, for two half-days or for a period longer than 24 hours. Furthermore, it appears from the information provided by the Government in its last report on the Weekly Rest (Industry) Convention, 1921 (No. 14), that issues relating to the suspension of weekly rest or compensatory rest lie within the competence of the CNTEFP. The Committee hopes that the Government will take into account the comments that it has been making for many years concerning the need to give full effect to Article 8(3) of the Convention and requests it to indicate whether the order envisaged in section 97 of the Labour Code has been issued. If so, it requests the Government to provide a copy, as well as any other information relating to the work of the CNTEFP concerning the regulation of the weekly rest period.

The Committee notes that, despite the adoption of the new Labour Code (Act No. 133/AN/05/5eL of 28 January 2006), no provision specifically provides for the granting of compensatory rest of a minimum duration of 24 consecutive hours in the event that temporary, total or partial exemptions are authorized from the period of weekly rest: (a) in case of accident, actual or threatened, force majeure or urgent work to premises and equipment; (b) in the event of abnormal pressure of work due to special circumstances; and (c) in order to prevent the loss of perishable goods.

The Committee notes with regret that the Government limited itself to reproducing information already contained in its previous report. The Government indicated, in its last report, once again, that section 11 of Order 1545 was no longer applied in practice and would be repealed on the occasion of the next revision of the labour law to bring the national legislation in conformity with the provisions of Article 8, paragraph 3, of the Convention. The Government also stated that this review would be undertaken as soon as the tripartite consultations had been organized. In order to maintain a constructive dialogue with the ILO supervisory bodies, the Government is requested, without delay, to take all the measures necessary to bring national law into conformity with the Convention and to inform the Office of any progress made in this regard. Finally, the Committee recalls that the Government can avail itself of the technical assistance of the Office, if need be.
