Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2013, Publicación: 103ª reunión CIT (2014)

Convenio sobre las vacaciones pagadas (revisado), 1970 (núm. 132) - Armenia (Ratificación : 2006)

Article 4(1) of the Convention. Proportionate leave. The Committee draws once again the Government’s attention to the fact that the Labour Code does not expressly provide for the right to holidays pro rata to the length of service (for instance, annual leave to be calculated on the basis of a minimum two-and-a-half calendar days per month of employment). The Committee accordingly requests the Government to indicate how it is ensured in law and in practice that a person whose length of service in any year is less than that required for the full entitlement of 28 days provided for in section 159(1) of the Labour Code is entitled in respect of that year to a holiday with pay proportionate to his/her length of service during that year.

Article 9. Postponement and accumulation of paid holiday. The Committee understands that following the amendment of section 167(3) of the Labour Code, effective as from August 2012, no annual leave may be deferred or taken for any reason later than 18 months from the end of the year in which the leave fell due. The Committee requests the Government to specify whether this understanding is correct.

Article 12 of the Convention. Prohibition to relinquish the right to annual paid leave. Recalling that this Article of the Convention requires that any agreement to relinquish or forgo the right to annual paid holidays be considered null and void or be prohibited, the Committee requests the Government to take appropriate action in order to give full effect to this requirement of the Convention.
