Protocolo de 2014 relativo al Convenio sobre el trabajo forzoso, 1930 - Madagascar (Ratificación : 2019)

Article 2, paragraphs 1 and 2, of the Convention. Compulsory labour. The Committee notes that section 4 of the new Labour Code prohibits forced labour and that this provision takes up the definition of forced labour contained in the Convention. The Committee notes that this prohibition does not apply to work, services or assistance required in the case of robbery, pillage, flagrant offence, public disturbances or judicial execution. The Committee requests the Government to indicate the conditions under which such work is carried out and the circumstances in which it is imposed so that it can assess the extent to which it is covered by the exceptions set out in the Convention.

The Committee notes the information provided by the Government on the work of collective interest carried out under the terms of a freely approved agreement by the members of "fokonolona".
