Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2005, Publicación: 95ª reunión CIT (2006)

The Committee notes with regret 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 that it was decided to revise the Protection of Wages Act No. 6, 1962, taking all aspects of wages into consideration. The authority for application of a minimum wage was accordingly embodied in the draft Protection of Wages Act. This Act was included in the 1997 legislative agenda. The Committee requests the Government to supply a copy of the Protection of Wages Act once adopted.

The Committee again hopes that the Government will supply information on this point in the near future, together with other general information on the application of the Convention in practice, as required by Article 5 of the Convention and Part V of the report form, including: (i) the minimum wage rates in force; (ii) the available data on the number and different categories of workers covered by minimum wage provisions; and (iii) the results of inspections carried out (e.g. the number of violations of minimum wage provisions revealed, the penalties imposed, etc.).
