Many recommendations simply duplicate conventions, helping those countries which have not joined corresponding convention.

These labour rights concretise certificates the ILO, for example, about a forced labour interdiction — the Convention №29 (1936) and the Convention № 105 (1957).

Overtime works according to certificates the ILO (the Recommendation № 116) are supposed only in certain cases and limits and are subject to additional payment.
Annual holidays paid for average earnings are established by Conventions the ILO №52 (1936) and № 132 (1970) according to which such holiday is given not less than three working weeks for every year works.
