The Committee notes that the Government’s report contains no reply to its previous comments. It hopes that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous comments.
Repetition
Article 3 of the Convention. Policy to improve the working conditions of workers in hotels and restaurants. With reference to its previous comment, the Committee notes the Government’s statement that in accordance with Act No. 21 of 2007 amending the Workers’ Pensions and Social Security Act No. 39 of 1971, workers employed in hotels and restaurants, including temporary workers, are covered by the provisions of the Workers’ Pensions and Social Security Act. The Government adds that these workers are also covered by the Instructions on Occupational Safety and Health No. 22 of 1987. Recalling that the Convention specifically requires ratifying states to adopt and apply, in a manner appropriate to national law, conditions and practice, a policy designed to improve the working conditions of the workers concerned, the Committee requests the Government to take the necessary steps in order to initiate the process for the formulation of a national policy regarding the working conditions in the hotel and catering sector, and to keep the Office informed of any progress made in this respect.
