Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2010, Publicación: 100ª reunión CIT (2011)

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:

Gender equality and the informal economy. The Committee recalls its request to the Government to provide information on the measures taken to provide labour protection to women in the informal economy. In reply, the Government generally refers to the 2009 Labour Protection Policy, which aims at extending protection to workers in the informal economy, the self-employed, contract workers, seasonal workers and home workers. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the specific measures taken to enhance the protection of these workers, many of whom are women, and to indicate whether any consideration is being given to ratifying the Home Work Convention, 1996 (No. 177).
