Article 5(1) and (2) of the Convention. Minimum period of service for entitlement to annual holiday with pay. Further to its previous comments, the Committee wishes to point out that according to Article 5(2) of the Convention, the minimum period of service for entitlement to annual holiday with pay must not exceed six months. While noting the Government’s statement that the Committee’s observations will be transmitted to the Labour Code review panel, the Committee again expresses the hope that legislative measures will be taken at the earliest opportunity to amend section 89 of the Labour Code and to bring it into line with the provisions of the Convention on this point.

Article 9. Postponement of annual holiday with pay. The Committee has been drawing the Government’s attention since 1980 to the fact that section 1(3) of Decree No. 75-28 of 10 January 1975 is inconsistent with provisions of the Convention. Indeed, this provision of the Decree provides that annual holiday with pay may be carried over, at the request of the worker, for a period of up to two years, which is contrary to Articles 8(2) and 9(1) of the Convention. In its last report, the Government indicates that the revision of the Labour Code is under way, and will lead to the revision of all the enabling texts. It also indicates that the amendments committee of the Ministry of Labour and Social Security will receive the text of Decree No. 75-28 of 10 January 1975 for revision. The Committee hopes that the measures to revise the legislative texts will produce early results in aligning the national legislation with the provisions of the Convention and requests the Government to transmit a copy of the new text as soon as it is adopted.
