Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1991, published 78th ILC session (1991)

Article 3, paragraph 1, of the Convention. With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes that the Government will take the necessary steps to ensure that the Committee set up to draft the new Labour Code will take account of the comments made by the Committee of Experts concerning the incompatibility of section 165 of the Labour Code in force with the provisions of Article 3, paragraph 1 of the Convention which lays down that wages payable in money shall be paid only in legal tender and that payment in the form of promissory notes, vouchers or coupons, or in any other form alleged to represent legal tender shall be prohibited. The Committee hopes that the Government will in due course provide a copy of the new provisions that are adopted in this regard in order to bring the existing legislation into conformity with the Convention.

Article 4, paragraph 2. The Committee recalls that in earlier comments, it has noted that the regulations provided for by section 2 of Decree No. 11324-TSS respecting the evaluation of allowances in kind had not yet been adopted. The Committee observes that, once again, the Government provides no information on this matter and requests it to indicate the steps it has taken or envisages to ensure that these regulations are drafted and adopted.
