Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1994, publiée 81ème session CIT (1994)

The Committee emphasized in its previous comments the importance of having adequate statistical data so as to have a clear indication of the nature and extent of inequalities and to elaborate measures to overcome them. The Committee notes the Government's statement that the undoubted application, in law and in practice, of the Convention excludes any inequalities and makes statistical research unnecessary. With reference to its above comments, the Committee stresses that it is useful to have statistical information in order to evaluate the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice. The Committee recalls that the assistance of the Office can be requested for the compilation of such data. It hopes that the Government will supply with its next report the minimum wage rates and average actual earnings of men and women in the private sector, if possible by occupation, branch of the activity, seniority and level of qualifications, with an indication of the corresponding percentage of women.
