Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2000, publiée 89ème session CIT (2001)

Article 8 of the Convention.  The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report concerning the deductions from wages authorized by law by virtue of section 201(1) of the Labour Code. The Committee notes the ceiling on deductions envisaged in section 201(4), which concerns the repayment of loans granted by banking institutions. Nevertheless, no ceiling is established for other deductions authorized by this section of the Labour Code. The Committee recalls once again that, in accordance with this Article of the Convention, in all cases in which deductions from wages are allowed, limits for such deductions have to be fixed. The Committee once again requests the Government to provide information on the measures which have been adopted or are envisaged to give effect to this provision of the Convention.
