The Committee notes with concern that the Government’s report has not been received. It expects that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous comments.
Repetition
Article 1 of the Convention. Principle of equal remuneration for work of equal value in the private sector. The Committee noted that section 104 of the Labour Code provided for equal remuneration for work of equal value and requested the Government to take steps to raise awareness of these provisions of the Labour Code. The Committee notes that the report of the Government does not contain information in this regard. It therefore once again requests the Government to take steps to raise awareness of the provisions of the Labour Code stipulating equal remuneration for the same work or for work of equal value (section 104) and to arrange for training to raise awareness of this principle among workers, employers and their organizations and also among labour inspectors, judges and other officials responsible for enforcement of the provisions of the Labour Code.
Application of the principle in the public service. The Committee notes that the Government does not provide information on the application of the Convention in the public service. The Committee therefore once again requests the Government to indicate the pay scale applicable to the public service and to provide a copy of the decree establishing the system of remuneration for public officials provided for in section 14 of the Public Service Regulations. It also requests the Government to provide information on the manner in which the pay scale was established, stating whether it is based on objective criteria, such as responsibilities, effort and working conditions, which do not favour occupations held predominantly by men or predominantly by women.
Collective agreements. The Committee requested information on the application in practice of section 92(7) of the Labour Code, according to which collective agreements that may be extended must include provisions on the manner in which the principle of the Convention is to be applied. The Committee notes that the Government does not provide information in this regard. It therefore once again requests the Government to indicate the measures taken to encourage the social partners to include in collective agreements the principle of equal remuneration for men and women for work of equal value, as well as the clauses on the manner in which the principle is to be applied. It also requests the Government to provide extracts from collective agreements relating to remuneration.
Minimum wage. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that no decree fixing the guaranteed inter-occupational minimum wage (SMIG) has been adopted. The Committee recalls that the fixing of a national minimum wage is an important means of application of the Convention, given that women are predominant in low-paid jobs. The Committee therefore once again requests the Government to provide information on any developments relating to the fixing of the guaranteed inter-occupational minimum wage (SMIG). The Committee also refers to its comments on this point concerning the application of the Minimum Wage-Fixing Machinery Convention, 1928 (No. 26) and the Minimum Wage Fixing Machinery (Agriculture) Convention, 1951 (No. 99).
Statistics. Evaluation of the pay gap. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that it plans to conduct, through the Office of the Commissioner General for Planning (CGP) and the Ministry of Labour, surveys on jobs held by men and those held by women. The Committee requests the Government: (i) to provide information on the conduct and outcome of these surveys; (ii) to take the necessary measures to collect and compile data disaggregated by sex on the labour market participation of men and women and their respective earnings, by sector of economic activity and occupation; and (iii) to provide this data.
