The Committee notes that, in reply to the comments made by the General Union of Cameroon Workers (UGTC), the Government merely states the procedure followed by the inspection services when a dispute is brought before them. It also notes that, according to the Government, the inspectors can only act if they are informed of a dispute of this type and that the workers must act as the link to the labour inspectorate in enterprises. The Committee is bound to observe that this extremely brief report of the Government does not reply to the UGTC allegations, according to which, in most cases, the employers do not pay the wages provided for by the collective agreement of the sector concerned, and workers engaged in the execution of public contracts do not have any social security protection. The Committee requests the Government to reply in detail to its previous comment on this point and on the other issues raised.
The Committee also draws the Government’s attention to the General Survey which it conducted this year on labour clauses in public contracts, which gives an overview of law and practice in this field in the member States and provides an evaluation of the impact and current relevance of Convention No. 94.
[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2008.]
