Convention (n° 14) sur le repos hebdomadaire (industrie), 1921 - Iles Cook (Ratification: 2015)

The Committee takes note of the information provided by the Government in its first report.

Article 2 of the Convention. Weekly rest entitlement. The Committee notes that the legislation in force does not expressly provide for workers’ entitlement to enjoy, in every period of seven days, a period of rest comprising at least 24 consecutive hours, as required by Article 2 of the Convention. It notes that the Government acknowledges this gap and that it indicates that an ILO Legislative Compliance Review of Labour Laws in the country had recommended an amendment to the Employment Relations Act of 2012 (ERA) to give effect to the Convention. The Committee therefore requests the Government to take the necessary measures, including any legislative amendments, to ensure that the principle of weekly rest is guaranteed in conformity with the Convention and to provide information in this regard.
