Convenio sobre el descanso semanal (comercio y oficinas), 1957 (núm. 106) - Kuwait (Ratificación : 1961)

Article 2 of the Convention. The Committee notes the general information provided in the Government's report. For many years, the Committee has been drawing the Government's attention to the need to adopt provisions to guarantee a weekly rest period of 24 consecutive hours for workers covered by the Convention but excluded from the Labour Law (Private Sector) of 1964, namely temporary workers employed for a period of less than six months and workers in enterprises employing fewer than five persons. The Committee notes that, despite the assurances given on several occasions by the Government, no progress has apparently been made in this respect. The Committee once again expresses the hope that the Government will take the necessary measures.

The Government is asked to supply full particulars to the Conference at its 79th Session.
