Articles 3(1), 4(4), 6(2) and 8 of the Convention. Working conditions in hotels and restaurants. The Committee notes that the Government’s report contains very limited information in response to the specific points raised in previous comments. In the interest of maintaining a meaningful dialogue with the supervisory bodies of the Organization, the Committee once again requests the Government to provide up-to-date and detailed information on the manner in which effect is given in law and in practice to the following requirements of the Convention: adoption and implementation of a national policy designed to improve the working conditions of those employed in the hotel, restaurant and catering industry (Article 3); measures to ensure that the workers concerned have sufficient advance notice of working schedules applicable to them (Article 4); specific measures, legislative or others, to prevent fixed remuneration from being replaced by voluntary gratuities or tipping (Article 6); implementation of the Convention through collective agreements (Article 8).

Part V of the report form. Application in practice. The Committee requests the Government to collect and transmit information on the practical application of the Convention, including, for instance, statistics on the number of workers covered by the relevant legislation, copies of applicable collective agreements, extracts from labour inspection reports, and official studies or surveys, which may have been conducted by public authorities or industrial associations, such as the Tourism and Hospitality Association of Guyana (THAG), concerning the employment situation or any difficulties experienced in the hotel and catering sector.
