Abstract
|
|
| Art. 1 of this decision lists the jobs and cases in which work must continue without rest periods.
In those situations, the employer shall allow workers to drink or eat light snacks or rest in a manner organized by the establishment during work (Art. 2). Art. 3 lists the difficult or strenuous jobs in which a worker must be allowed one or more rest periods of no less than one hour, which shall be counted towards actual working hours. This decision repeals decision No. 19 of 1976 Specifying Jobs and Cases in which Work May Continue Without Rest Periods (Art. 4). |
