Articles 1 and 8 of the Convention. Right to annual holidays with pay. In its previous comments, the Committee requested the Government to amend section 12(a) of Government Notice No. 888 of 5 December 1980, which permits the deferral of annual leave for a period of up to two years or for longer with both the employee's and the union's consent. In this respect, the Committee recalled that Article 1 of the Convention provides that workers covered by the Convention should be granted an annual holiday with pay and that, under Article 8, any agreement to relinquish the right to annual holiday with pay, or to forgo such holiday, must be void. The Committee notes that, in the context of the revision of the national labour legislation, the Government requested technical assistance from the Office, which provided comments on a draft Labour Act in 2018. The Committee also notes that the abovementioned draft Act has not been adopted yet. Hoping that in the framework of the legislative revision process, the above comments will be taken into account so as to ensure full conformity with the Convention, the Committee requests the Government to provide information on any progress made in this regard.
