Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2013, published 103rd ILC session (2014)

Night Work (Women) Convention (Revised), 1948 (No. 89) - Panama (Ratification: 1970)

Article 3 of the Convention. Prohibition of night work of women. The Committee notes the Government’s statement that even though it considers the provisions of the Convention limiting the women’s right to employment to be totally obsolete, it has been regrettably unable to denounce the Convention during the one-year period that ended on 27 February 2012. The Government also indicates that it intends to proceed to the denunciation of the Convention on the next suitable occasion after having duly consulted the social partners. The Committee requests the Government to keep the Office informed of any progress made concerning the denunciation of Convention No. 89 and the eventual ratification of the Night Work Convention, 1990 (No. 171).
