Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2014, published 104th ILC session (2015)

Minimum Wage-Fixing Machinery Convention, 1928 (No. 26) - Mali (Ratification: 1960)

The Committee notes the comments of the Confederation of Workers’ Unions of Mali (CSTM), received on 22 November 2013, concerning the absence in Mali of machinery established by regulations for the fixing of wages, despite the requests made by the CSTM to the Government and to employers since 2004 to establish machinery by regulation for the fixing of wages in accordance with fluctuations of purchasing power in general, and the profits of enterprises and services in particular. The Committee requests the Government to provide any comments that it may wish on this subject. Furthermore, the Committee notes that, contrary to the indication provided in the Government’s report, it does not contain copies of collective agreements fixing minimum rates of wages in sectors of food industries, mining, geological and hydrogeological companies, community health centres, private Catholic educational institutions and babysitting companies. The Committee further notes that the Government’s report does not contain a copy of Decree No. 04-253/P-RM of 5 July 2004 establishing the minimum guaranteed interoccupational wage. The Committee requests the Government to provide these documents in its next report.
