The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government in reply to its previous request, in particular, concerning Articles 2 (regarding Article 7), and 3 of the Convention, and requests the Government to supply further information on the following points.

Article 7. Please communicate to the ILO specific methodological information on the concepts, scope and coverage of statistics of the economically active population, employment and unemployment, in accordance with Article 6.

Articles 9 and 11. Please indicate the measures taken to produce, publish and communicate to the ILO information on the methodology followed to compile the statistics of average earnings and hours of work, and of the statistics of compensation of employees, as well as information on the concepts and definition used, in accordance with Article 6.

Article 9, paragraph 1. The Committee notes that statistics of average earnings and hours actually worked are not compiled by sex. The Government's report indicates that in San Marino there is no difference by sex in wage rates, hours and duration of work. The Committee points out that earnings actually paid may nevertheless differ between men and women, due to a number of reasons, such as hours actually worked, seniority, level of qualification. It also recalls that Recommendation No. 170 indicates that these statistics should be classified at least according to branch of economic activity and sex (paragraph 3(2)). The Committee therefore asks the Government to state the reasons for not following this guideline as regards sex, in accordance with Article 2.

Article 9, paragraph 2. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate the reasons why statistics of time rate of wages and normal hours of work are not compiled.

Article 10. Please state whether measures are taken or envisaged to compile, produce and publish statistics in conformity with this Article of the Convention, i.e. statistics on the composition of earnings (for time worked, for time not worked, bonuses and allowances, etc.) and hours of work (normal and overtime hours); and on the distribution of employees according to levels of earnings and hours of work.

Article 11. Please indicate the measures taken or envisaged to extend the scope of statistics of compensation of employees, which are at present limited to six major groups of manufacturing, to other important major groups or branches of economic activity. The Committee would also draw the Government's attention to the requirement under this Article that, where possible, these statistics should be consistent with data on paid employment, average earnings and hours actually worked.

Article 13. The Committee notes that no specific survey of household income and expenditure is conducted but that, according to the report, it is planned to carry out such a survey. It asks the Government to continue to supply information on any measures taken to collect, compile and publish the statistics in accordance with this Article.

Article 14. The Committee notes that the publication of statistics of occupational injuries has been resumed but that no differentiation is made in these statistics as to the gravity and consequence of the injuries. It asks the Government to indicate, in accordance with Article 2, whether the latest standards and guidelines have been followed and the reasons for departures from them: for example, why separate statistics are not produced for fatal injuries and injuries with temporary or permanent disability; whether information is available regarding the number of workdays lost as a result of occupational injury. Please also indicate, in accordance with Article 5, the periodicity of the publication of these statistics, which appeared most recently in a separate appendix to a 1993 issue of the Bulletin of Statistics. Finally, please communicate to the ILO a detailed description of the statistics, especially regarding the source and coverage of the data and the concepts, definitions and methodology used.
