Weekly rest

(3) In the units where, due to the specifics of work, the weekly rest cannot be granted on Sunday, the employees will benefit from two days off during the week and from a salary increase established by the collective labor contract or the individual labor contract. .


(4) The duration of the uninterrupted weekly rest in any case must not be less than 42 hours, except for the cases when the working week is 6 days.
