The Committee notes the observations made by the Workers’ Confederation of Comoros (CTC), received on 1 September 2011, in which the organization states that, given that section 97 of the Labour Code has still not been revised, it is difficult to assess the extent of its application in enterprises with respect to remuneration because there is no wage scale to which employers might refer. The Committee invites the Government to submit any comments it would like to make in reply to the observations of the CTC.

Furthermore, the Committee notes that it has not received the Government’s report. It therefore feels bound to reiterate its previous observation, which reads as follows:

Article 2(2)(a) of the Convention. Principle of equal remuneration for work of equal value. Legislation. The Committee notes that, according to the Government’s report, in the context of the draft revision of the Labour Code, particularly section 97, the draft section on equal remuneration states that “all employers must ensure equal remuneration for the same work or for work of equal value”. The Committee also notes the communication from the Comoros Employers’ Organization (OPACO) dated 1 September 2009, which states that the revision of section 97 of the Labour Code has not yet been carried out. It notes the Government’s reply referring the OPACO to its report. The Committee asks the Government to indicate the progress of the legislative work relating to the revision of the Labour Code and hopes that the new Labour Code, giving full expression to the principle of equal remuneration for men and women for work of equal value, will be adopted in the near future. The Committee asks the Government to supply information on the role of the social partners in the process of the revision of the Labour Code and to send a copy of the new Code once it has been adopted.

The Committee hopes that the Government will do its utmost to take the necessary measures in the near future.

The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
