Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1987, Publicación: 74ª reunión CIT (1987)

Convenio sobre las vacaciones pagadas (revisado), 1970 (núm. 132) - Madagascar (Ratificación : 1972)

With reference to its previous comments, although noting the explanations given by the Government in its last report, the Committee wishes to point out that under Article 9, paragraph 1, of the Convention at least a part of the holiday (generally two weeks) must be taken no later than one year, from the end of the year in respect of which the holiday entitlement has arisen and that, consequently, section 5 of Decree No. 60-124 of 1 June 1960, under which officials may have their entitlement to annual leave postponed for two successive years in order to be entitled after three years of uninterrupted service to an accumulated holiday, is not in conformity with this provision of the Convention.

The Committee hopes that the necessary measures will be taken in the near future to bring the legislation into conformity with the Convention on this point.
