Previous comment

Article 2 of the Convention. Weekly rest entitlement. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes the Government’s indication in its report that an amendment of the Employment Relations Act of 2012 (ERA), to include a weekly rest provision, is planned as part of the Decent Work Country Programme (DWCP) 2019–22; however, no legislative amendments have been adopted in this regard in the last two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Committee requests the Government to take the necessary measures to ensure that both in law and in practice the whole of the staff employed in any industrial undertaking, public or private, or in any branch thereof, enjoy in every period of seven days a period of rest comprising at least 24 consecutive hours, as required by the Convention.
