Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2004, Publicación: 93ª reunión CIT (2005)

Convenio sobre las horas de trabajo (comercio y oficinas), 1930 (núm. 30) - Guinea Ecuatorial (Ratificación : 1985)

Article 1 of the Convention. The Labour Act (No. 2/1990) applies to all undertakings, enterprises or establishments in the country (section 3). However, according to section 4, the work of public officials is excluded from the scope of the Act and is subject to special regulations. The Committee requests the Government to provide a copy of the regulations on hours of work that apply to these officials. Furthermore, the daily and weekly limits on hours of work do not apply, among others, to persons performing duties which, by their nature, do not involve fixed working days (section 48(4)). The Committee requests the Government to provide more specific information on the categories of workers thus excluded.

Article 5. The Committee notes from the information supplied by the Government in its report that collective work stoppages for the reasons set out in Article 5 of the Convention are not frequent and that, consequently, there are no specific regulations on this subject. The Committee requests the Government to indicate whether, in practice, the hours lost in such circumstances may be made up and, if so, under what conditions.
