Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1994, Publicación: 81ª reunión CIT (1994)

Convenio sobre las horas de trabajo (industria), 1919 (núm. 1) - India (Ratificación : 1921)

The Committee notes the information from the Culcutta Dock Workers' Union to the effect that since 1982, the escorts and guards employed by Coal India Ltd have to work for 24 hours continuously without any break.

The comments were sent to the Government on 16 September 1993, but so far it has not submitted its observations on them.

The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide information on this case at the earliest possible date so that an appropriate examination can be conducted of the above-mentioned union's allegations of non-observance of the Convention.
