Article 2 of the Convention. Scope of application. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes that the draft law on agricultural workers and the draft law on decent work for domestic workers, which were attached to the Government’s report, do not reflect any of the main requirements of the Convention. In this respect, the Committee wishes to observe that agricultural workers employed in undertakings of a non-industrial or non-commercial character and domestic workers are still excluded from the scope of application of the draft Labour Code and therefore do not enjoy the coverage of the Convention. The Committee accordingly requests the Government, in the framework of the ongoing labour law reform process, to take the necessary steps to ensure that all agricultural and domestic workers benefit from wage protection in accordance with the provisions of the Convention.

Article 16. Implementing legislation. The Committee notes that several provisions of the Convention are not adequately reflected in the general labour legislation, such as Articles 4 (partial payment of wages in kind), 5 (payment of wages directly to the worker concerned), 6 (use of wages free from constraint), 8 (deductions from wages), 12(2) (final settlement of wages due), 14 (information on pay conditions) and 15(d) (record keeping). Noting that the draft amendments to the Labour Code have been under discussion for more than ten years, the Committee requests the Government to take all necessary measures to ensure that the Convention is fully implemented both in law and in practice.
