See under Convention No. 26, as follows:

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the following matters raised in its previous direct request:

The Committee notes that the Government referred to the draft Labour Code which has been transmitted to the Office and which was at that time under discussion by the National Assembly. It notes that section 141 of this draft Code, which concerns in particular the fixing of the guaranteed minimum inter-occupational wage by means of decrees, does not provide for consultation with employers and workers. The Committee hopes that the Government will take the appropriate measures to ensure, in conformity with Article 3, paragraph 2(2), of the Convention, that employers and workers are associated in the operation of minimum wage fixing machinery.

The Committee also requests the Government to supply information on the measures which have been taken to ensure that the wages which are actually paid are not less than the statutory minimum wage and that workers to whom the statutory minimum wage is applicable and who have been paid wages at less than these rates are entitled to recover the amount by which they have been underpaid, in accordance with the provisions of Article 4.

The Committee also requests the Government to supply information on the results of the application of methods for fixing minimum wages, and particularly the approximate numbers of workers covered by the regulations, the minimum rates of wages fixed, and the more important of the other conditions, if any, established relevant to the minimum wages, as required by Article 5.
