Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1995, published 83rd ILC session (1996)

Hours of Work (Industry) Convention, 1919 (No. 1) - Libya (Ratification: 1971)

The Committee notes the Government's report in reply to its previous direct request. It notes the favourable opinion of the recently established technical committee regarding the need to amend section 87 of Labour Code No. 58 of 1970 and section 2 of Act No. 72 of 1972 (not available at the ILO) with a view to bringing national legislation into conformity with the Convention.

The Committee trusts that the Government will not fail to follow up this opinion in the near future. It requests it to keep the ILO informed of any progress in this respect.
