CHAPTER 1 - Working time

SECTION 4 - Work quota

Art. 129. [legal definition and contents]
A work quota is the amount of work necessary for a person with the appropriate skills, working with normal intensity, under the conditions of determined technological and work processes, to perform certain operations or works. The work quota includes the productive time, the time for breaks imposed by the technological process, and the time for legal breaks within the work schedule.

Art. 130. [types of work quotas]
The work quotas are classified, depending upon the characteristics of the production process or other standardized activities, as time quotas, output quotas, personnel quotas, scope of competence or other forms corresponding to the specific features of every activity.

Art. 131. [scope of work quotas]
The work quotas shall apply to all categories of employees.

Art. 132. [preparation and review of work quotas]
(1) The work quotas shall be developed by the employers, according to the regulations in force or, in case there are no regulations, the work quotas shall be developed with the agreement of the trade union or, as the case may be, the representatives of the employees.
(1¹) In case of disagreement over the work quotas, the parties shall rely on the arbitration of a third party agreed upon by them.
(2) When the work quotas do not correspond anymore to the technical conditions prevalent when adopted or do not ensure an adequate degree of use of the normal working time, they shall be subject to a review.
(3) The review procedure and the actual cases when such review may be needed shall be laid down in the applicable collective labour agreement or in the rules of procedure.
