Further to its previous comments, the Committee takes note of the information provided by the Government in its report.

1. The Committee again expresses the hope that the Government will shortly be able to transmit the results of the work of the ad hoc committee established by Order No. 86-008/MJ-FOP of 19 April 1986, to study wages and, in particular, the guaranteed occupational minimum wage, and that it will also indicate their implications for the application of the principle laid down in the Convention.

2. The Committee again regards the Government to supply a copy of the particular conditions of service applying to the various branches of the public service (Act No. 80-22 of 1981 establishing the general conditions of service of public servants), as soon as they are adopted.

3. The Government indicates that a state of acute crisis has prevented it from having the Labour Code amended, but that when the Code is reviewed, it will not fail to take account of the definition of equal remuneration laid down in the Convention. The Committee hopes that, in its next report, the Government will be able to provide information on the progress made in this respect.

4. With regard to the information requested by the Committee concerning the sectors (industries, enterprises or services) employing a large number of women, the Committee notes from the Government's report that the only sector to employ a large number of women is the clerical sector of the civil service, where all employees receive equal pay for equal qualifications, irrespective of sex, and that in the private sector wages are determined by professional qualifications and occupational category, without any discrimination based on sex. The Committee refers to paragraphs 22 and 72, 138 to 152 and 199 to 215 of its General Survey of 1986 on Equal Remuneration, and asks the Government to provide information on any system, either existing or contemplated for an objective appraisal of jobs on the basis of the tasks involved, both in the public service and in the branches of the private sector employing women.
