Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2020, published 109th ILC session (2021)

Minimum Age Convention, 1973 (No. 138) - Tajikistan (Ratification: 1993)

Article 8 of the Convention. Artistic performances. The Committee previously noted the Government’s indication that children are permitted to take part in artistic performances under the general minimum age for admission to employment or work. The Committee further noted the Government’s consideration to enact a regulatory framework for the granting of permits to children participating in artistic performances. Noting an absence of information from the Government on this point, the Committee once again requests the Government to take the necessary measures to regulate the participation of children under the minimum age in artistic performances in accordance with Article 8 of the Convention. The Committee further requests the Government to provide information on any progress made in this regard.
