Convenio sobre los métodos para la fijación de salarios mínimos, 1928 (núm. 26) - República Democrática del Congo (Ratificación : 1960)

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 direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee notes the adoption by the National Labour Council (CNT) at its session from 15 January to 12 February 2002 of three bills containing provisions respecting minimum wage fixing machinery, including a draft revised Labour Code, a draft decree determining the methods for the fixing and adjustment of the guaranteed minimum inter-occupational wage (SMIG) and a draft decree fixing the SMIG. The Committee requests the Government to provide copies of these texts as soon as they have been enacted and published in the Official Journal, together with any other information concerning the fixing of minimum wages in accordance with the requirement of the full consultation and direct participation of the representatives of employers and workers concerned.

The Committee also notes the Government’s indication that, despite the fact that the Labour Inspectorate is once again undertaking inspections, the reports thereon are not yet available. Recalling that such information has not been provided since 1993, the Committee trusts that the Government will make every effort to provide this information in the very near future, as well as any general indications on the application of the Convention in practice, in accordance with Article 5 of the Convention and Part V of the report form.
