Convenio sobre el descanso semanal (industria), 1921 (núm. 14) - Montenegro (Ratificación : 2006)

The Committee notes the Government’s first detailed report on the application of the Convention and wishes to draw its attention to the following points.

Article 4 of the Convention. Total or partial exceptions to weekly rest. The Committee requests the Government to refer to the comments made under Articles 7 and 8 of the Weekly Rest (Commerce and Offices) Convention, 1957 (No. 106).

Article 7. Posting of notices. The Committee notes the Government’s reference to section 46(1) of the Labour Law of 8 July 2003 (Official Gazette No. 43/03) which establishes the right of the employer to fix or modify the work schedule and introduce extra hours. The Committee requests the Government to specify the legislative, regulatory or other provisions which establish the obligation of the employer to make known the days and hours of weekly rest by means of notices where the rest is given collectively, or to draw up a roster where the rest is not granted collectively, in accordance with Article 7 of the Convention.

Part V of the report form. Application in practice. While noting the indication that the Convention applies without difficulty and that there have been no requests for labour inspection intervention regarding alleged violations of the rules on weekly rest, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would supply general information on the application of the Convention in practice, including, for instance, statistics on the number of workers covered by the relevant legislation, copies of collective agreements containing clauses on weekly rest, extracts from reports of the labour inspection services showing the number of any infringements observed and sanctions imposed, etc.
