Convention concerning Statistics of Wages and Hours of Work, 1938 (No. 63) - Nicaragua (Ratification: 1981)

The Committee notes the information contained in the Government's report concerning the methods employed for the compilation of statistics on wages (Parts II and IV of the Convention) and for the compilation of statistics on average hours of work, time rates of wages and normal hours of work (Parts II, III and IV of the Convention). The Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate the measures that have been taken or that it contemplates taking in order to:

1. Compile information on allowances in kind, where these form a substantial part of the total remuneration of the wage earners employed; compile separate figures for males and females, adults and juveniles; and compile index numbers for average earnings (Part II).

2. Compile statistics on average hours of work (Parts II and IV of the Convention) and statistics on time rates of wages and normal hours of work (Part III).
