Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1989, Publicación: 76ª reunión CIT (1989)

Convenio sobre los métodos para la fijación de salarios mínimos, 1928 (núm. 26) - Guinea-Bissau (Ratificación : 1977)

The Committee notes with interest Decree No. 17/88 fixing new minimum wage rates. It notes that, for the time being, the Government is unable to collect statistical data, in accordance with Article 5 of the Convention, on the numbers of workers to whom minimum wages apply and other information (for example extracts of inspection service reports) required under Part V of the report form. The Committee hopes that the Government will shortly take the necessary steps to obtain this information and forward it to the International Labour Office.

Furthermore, the Committee recalls that the Government indicated in previous reports that a General Labour Bill was being prepared and that steps have been taken to make good the deficiencies in the Bill relating to methods of fixing minimum wages. The Committee requests the Government to provide information whether the new labour legislation has been adopted.
