Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1999, published 88th ILC session (2000)

The Committee notes with interest the adoption of Act No. 92-020 of 23 September 1992 issuing the Labour Code and of Decree No. 94-383 P-RM of 2 December 1994 fixing the guaranteed minimum wage and the guaranteed minimum wage in agriculture.

Article 5 of the Convention read together with Part V of the report form. The Committee notes the Government's indication that unfortunately it cannot provide information on the number of workers covered by the minimum wage regulations since no serious study on the question is available and that contact is soon to be made with the competent services, in particular the Employment and Training Observatory, with a view to remedying this situation. The Committee trusts that the Government will make every effort in the very near future to be able to provide information and extracts of reports regarding the practical application of the Convention, including, for example, approximate numbers of workers covered by minimum wage regulations and extracts of reports of the inspection services.
