Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2004, Publicación: 93ª reunión CIT (2005)

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee notes the Government’s report, and in particular the information supplied in reply to the previous request regarding absence from work due to occupational injuries and occupational diseases (Article 14 of the Convention). It requests the Government to supply further information on the following points.

Article 7. The Committee draws the attention of the Government to the obligation to communicate data to the ILO as soon as practicable (in accordance with Article 5), including, for instance, the update of the series on paid employment in manufacturing - derived from a survey of establishments employing six or more persons.

Article 8. The Committee notes the Government’s reply to the previous request. It notes with interest that the structure and distribution of the economically active population are compiled from the "register-based labour force statistics", reflecting all the distributions recommended in the ILO Recommendation No. 170.

Articles 9, 10 and 11. The Committee notes that, apparently, annual statistics of average earnings, hours of work, wage structure and distribution, and labour cost form part of an annual programme of structural wages, which covers all major economic activities and represents the whole country. The Committee takes note of the development of the annual structural programme which is assumed to provide the statistics referred to under Articles 9(1), 10 and 11. However, it also draws the Government’s attention to the unavailability of current and up-to-date statistics on average earnings, hours of work and labour cost, due to the extensive time-lag between compilation and dissemination of the statistics. The publications mentioned in the report do not seem to be received in the ILO. The Committee also recalls the requirements of Article 5, to communicate to the ILO, as soon as practicable, the statistics compiled in pursuance of these Articles, including the relevant publications and methodological information on concepts, definitions, scope and method of the survey, etc. (in accordance with Article 6).

Article 13. The Committee asks the Government to transmit to the ILO the published data on income and expenditure together with the reference information on their publications (in accordance with Article 5).
