The Committee notes the Government’s report for 2000 and Order No. 311 of 28 June 2002 issuing regulations on wages and conditions of work. It notes that the employment and earnings survey of 1990 was abandoned because it no longer reflected the reality of the situation characterized by inflation, socio-economic changes and the effects of structural adjustment programmes. The Committee notes that the integrated survey on the labour force (covering the general labour force, child labour and the informal sector in mainland Tanzania), which was conducted in early 2000 with ILO assistance and in conformity with international statistical definitions, was completed and its results communicated to the ILO in August 2003. The purpose of that survey was to obtain quantitative and qualitative reference data on certain characteristics of the labour force to enable the Government to formulate its training and employment policies and to implement the 1997 national employment policy and the 1998 Act concerning the national employment promotion service. While noting with interest that the results of the survey meet the requirements of the Convention, the Committee nevertheless notes the absence of any subsequent compilation of statistics of average wages and of hours of work. Even though the categories of workers covered by the Convention represent a very small proportion of the current labour force (7.4 per cent), the Committee hopes that the Government will adopt measures ensuring that statistics of average earnings and of hours actually worked, of time rates of wages and of normal hours of work will be compiled on a regular basis.
