The Committee takes note of the information contained in the Government’s report.

1. The Committee notes the Government’s statement that it was presently not in a position to collect and provide statistical information on the levels of remuneration of men and women, but that the Government will take steps in future to create the conditions necessary to enable the competent services to collect such information. Recalling that the Government may request, if need be, the technical assistance of the Office regarding the establishment of statistics, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would transmit the statistical information already currently available, and continue to make efforts to compile statistics in conformity with its 1998 general observation.

2. In its 2000 report, the Government has mentioned that under section 3 of the draft Labour Code no employer may take gender, in addition to other listed discriminatory criteria, into consideration when taking decisions regarding wages and the extension of social advantages, etc. The Committee asks the Government to supply information on the development of this text and hopes that the draft will include, as does the 1988 Labour Code, the principle of equal remuneration for men and women for work of equal value, thus mandating application of the Convention.

3. The Committee notes from the report that Decree No. 009/PRG/SGG/89 of 5 January 1989 fixes remuneration rates according to levels of responsibility. The Committee asks the Government to provide a copy of this Decree.

4. In its latest report, the Government refers to three collective agreements: an agreement of 1 May 1992 covering public works, buildings and agricultural engineering; an agreement of 14 July 1994 covering mines, quarries and chemical industries; and an agreement of 20 May 1992 concerning the bank and insurance sector. The Government also indicates that a new collective agreement covering the restaurant and hotel sector is under negotiation. The Committee asks the Government to provide copies of the collective agreements with its next report or as soon as concluded, and to indicate the manner in which these agreements promote the application of the Convention.

5. The Committee asks the Government to indicate the means by which it collaborates with employers’ and workers’ organizations as regards the application of the provisions of the Convention.
