Articles 8 and 10 of the Convention. Deductions from wages. Attachment or assignment of wages. The Committee notes that deductions from wages and the attachment or assignment of wages are allowed only in the instances set forth in section 136 of the Labour Code (Act No. 2006-010 of 13 December 2006). It also notes that pursuant to section 137 of the Code, a draft decree fixing deduction rates and procedures and limits for the attachment and assignment of wages has been approved by the National Labour Council and will shortly be submitted to the Council of Ministers. The Committee requests the Government to provide a copy of the new decree as soon as it has been adopted.
Article 12. Regular payment of wages. The Committee understands that the country is faced with persistent difficulties in paying wages regularly, so that in some situations wage arrears of several months have accumulated in the public administration and state companies as well as in the private sector. It asks the Government to provide detailed information on the extent of the problem, indicating in particular the number of workers affected, the total amount of wages due, the number of enterprises and branches of activity concerned. It also asks the Government to indicate the measures taken or envisaged to settle the arrears and ensure regular payment of wages.
Article 14. Composition of the payslip. The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government to the effect that the decree provided for in section 129 of the Labour Code and establishing the composition of the payslip, has been approved by the National Labour Council. It asks the Government to send a copy of the decree as soon as it has been adopted.
Part V of the report form. Application in practice. Aware of the difficulties the Government has met in establishing a database of statistics on the work of the labour inspection services, the Committee hopes that the Government will shortly be in a position to collect and forward general information on the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice and, in particular, extracts from official reports, statistics of visits carried out by the inspection services indicating the number of infringements reported and the penalties imposed, copies of official studies pertaining to wage protection or any other information enabling the Committee to assess the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice.
