Article 6 of the Convention. Driving times. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes that the Government indicates in its report that the reference period of one month to be used to calculate hours of work on average is provided in section 6 of Order No. 138/2006. It also notes that sections 3.1 and 3.4 of Order No. 340/2010, which set the limits to total driving times, apply to all drivers covered by the Order.

Article 8(2). Limits to the possible reduction of daily rest. In its previous comments, the Committee noted that section 5.3 of Order No. 340/2010 allows the duration of daily rest to be reduced from ten to eight consecutive hours in certain cases without limiting this reduction to two consecutive days. The Committee recalls that Article 8(2) provides that the daily rest shall in no case be reduced to eight hours more than twice a week. In the absence of new information on this matter, the Committee requests the Government to take the necessary measures in order to ensure full compliance with this Article of the Convention and to provide information in this regard.
