Article 1 of the Convention. Definition of the term “wages”. Following up on its previous comments, the Committee notes the Government’s statement that the Bill which recognizes the wage nature of all “non-remunerative” allowances in the private sector is currently being reviewed by the Commission on Labour Legislation of the Chamber of Deputies. The Committee hopes that the new legislation – for which the General Confederation of Labour (CGT-RA) has expressed support – will soon be enacted and requests the Government to transmit a copy of the new legislative text as soon as it is adopted. In addition, the Committee would appreciate receiving up-to-date information on other points raised in past comments, including: (i) the situation with regard to the Bill to amend sections 120 and 147 of the Act on labour contracts on the elements of wages which cannot be attached; (ii) any developments in the situation concerning the payment of wages in the form of locally issued vouchers; and (iii) any persisting difficulties in the regular payment of wages in the public or private sectors.
