Convention (n° 132) sur les congés payés (révisée), 1970 - Cameroun (Ratification: 1973)

Article 9 of the Convention. In its previous comments, the Committee noted that the provisions of section 99, paragraph 2, of the Labour Code and section 1, paragraph 3, of Decree No. 75-28 of 10 January 1975, which authorise a period of up to two years for, respectively, the length of service giving entitlement to the holiday and the postponement of the holiday, are not in confirmity with this Article of the Convention according to which a part of the holiday (a minimum of two weeks) shall be granted and taken no later than one year from the end of the year in respect of which the holiday entitlement has arisen. In reply, the Government states that the process of bringing the Labour Code up to date has already begun and that measures to improve the legislative provisions referred to in the Committee's comments are under examination.

The Committee hopes that in its next report the Government will be able to indicate that measures have been adopted bringing the national legislation into conformity with this Article of the Convention.
