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 matters raised in its previous request, which read as follows:

1. The Committee draws the attention of the Government to the very broad definition of remuneration contained in Article 1 of the Convention. It asks the Government to indicate whether the equal pay provisions in the Labour Code and the other relevant Decrees cover emoluments in addition to salaries. Please also indicate whether any differences between men and women arise in the payment of any emoluments including benefits, allowances, bonuses, employment-based pensions, or in the provision of uniforms and tools.

2. The Committee again draws the Government’s attention to the principle of the Convention, which requires equality between men and women in remuneration for work of equal value. Noting that the Labour Code requirement of equal pay for equal work is more restricted than the Convention, please indicate the manner in which equal remuneration for work of equal value is ensured in the public sector and promoted in the private sector.

3. The Committee asks the Government to supply the wage scales in the public service and the numbers of women and men in occupational categories and their wage levels. It also invites the Government to collect and provide statistical information, disaggregated by sex, in so far as possible, in accordance with the 1998 general observation on this Convention.

4. Please provide information on the existence of any collective work agreements which include wages or job classifications, and supply copies of any relevant agreements. Please also indicate any activities undertaken by the social partners to promote application of the Convention.

5. The Committee asks the Government to supply information on the methods used by the Minister of Labour to set wages by sector. In this regard, please provide information on the manner in which the Government ensures that an objective and analytical evaluation of job content is undertaken so as to avoid the introduction of sex stereotypes which may underestimate the value of the work associated with work that women traditionally perform.

6. Please provide information on the manner in which the labour inspectorate supervises and ensures the application of the relevant legislation and the application of equal remuneration between men and women including information on the methods used. Please also indicate whether any relevant complaints have been made, and how the complaints have been handled including findings, remedies and sanctions.
