In the conditions of the World Health Crisis, caused by the Coronavirus COVID - 19, it turned out that Sunday is more than necessary to be a non-working day for all workers, and in the past we have seen that with the announced measures and the curfew that lasted during the weekends the whole society can also function if Sunday is a non-working day.
CCM has already proposed a day of weekly rest to be Saturday and Sunday in the previous requests submitted to the Government of RNM.
In our country, traditionally it is accepted that Saturday and Sunday are days of weekly rest in order to respect family traditions and protection of rights which is in accordance with the ILO Convention No. 106 on weekly rest.
Analyzes and examples show that workers will be more productive, will have more time for the family, rest and professional upskilling and additional education.
CCM believes that by promoting workers' rights and creating a legal framework, a solution for Sunday to be a non-working day shall be found.
This initiative of CCM is already being shown in practice and a large number of employers have voluntarily declared Sunday as a non-working day. This is an example that should be followed by other employers and the Government.
We remind you that the Prime Minister Zaev at the last meeting in CCM in early September promised to the workers that Sunday will be a non-working day, and so did the political parties in the pre-election period.
