Article 2(2)(c) of the Convention. Prison labour hired to private enterprises. Referring to its previous comments, the Committee notes the detailed information provided by the Government on labour carried out by convicted persons in the form of general service work or labour hired to private enterprises. It notes, in particular, the information on the procedures for detainees to access employment in the framework of hired labour (request for work, waiting list, signing of a deed of commitment). The Government reiterates that prison labour is of an entirely voluntary nature and that there is still more demand than there are jobs available. The Committee takes due note of this information. It requests the Government to continue to provide information on the measures taken to further align the working conditions of detainees working as hired labour with those of free workers, particularly with regards to the wage level.
