The Committee notes the Government’s first report.

Article 7 of the Convention. Works stores. The Government indicates that, in accordance with section 146 of the Labour Law, employers shall provide, at their own expense, stores for the sale of food, clothes, and any other necessary goods at a reasonable price to workers who perform work in workplaces which are far from undertakings, i.e., workplaces in which stores are usually not present, thereby giving effect to Article 7(2). In this respect, the Committee observes that there is no provision in the Labour Law prohibiting the compulsory use of work stores. The Committee requests the Government to indicate how it is ensuredthat workers are free from any coercion to make use of works stores or services in accordance with Article 7(1) of the Convention.

Articles 8(2) and 14 b). Information on deductions from wages. Information on the particulars of their wages. The Committee notes that the Labour Law does not contain provisions regarding the manner in which workers are informed of: (i) the conditions under which, and the limits within which, deductions may be made from their wages and (ii) the particulars of their wages for the pay period concerned, in so far as such particulars may be subject to change. The Committee requests the Government to indicate how it ensures that workers are informed: (i) in the manner deemed most appropriate by the competent authority, of the conditions under which and the extent to which deductions of wages may be made, in accordance with Article 8(2); and (ii) at the time of each payment of wages, of the particulars of their wages for the pay period concerned, in so far as such particulars may be subject to change, in accordance with Article 14(b).
