Article 1(c) of the Convention. Communication to the ILO of the statistics covered by the Convention. The Committee notes from the information available to the ILO Department of Statistics that the main sources of statistics on wages and hours of work are the Integrated Labour Force Survey (which includes a time–use module), presenting statistics on wages and hours of work for the economy as a whole and agriculture, mining and manufacturing in particular (latest one referring to 2014); and the Employment and Earnings Survey, an annual establishment survey which provides statistics on wage rates and earnings for the economy as a whole and agriculture, mining and manufacturing in particular. Statistical and methodological information derived from these surveys is available through the National Bureau of Statistics’ website. The Government indicates in its report that a meeting was held in February 2015 with the technical support of the ILO with a view to discussing and improving the questionnaire used to collect information for the Employment and Earnings Survey to ensure that it includes issues of working hours and wages. The Government also indicates that a labour force survey is being conducted in Zanzibar that allows for the production of statistics on wages, earnings and hours of work. It adds that the survey is being conducted with the technical and financial support of the World Bank under the Tanzania Statistical Master Plan. The Committee requests that the Government provide information on any developments in the improvement of the questionnaire used for the Employment and Earnings Survey. Please also communicate a copy of the latest labour force survey being conducted in Zanzibar when it becomes available.
The Committee notes the recommendations of the Standards Review Mechanism Tripartite Working Group and the corresponding decision of the Governing Body at its 328th Session in October–November 2016 (GB.328/LILS/2/1) calling upon the Office to commence follow-up with member States that are still bound by the Convention, encouraging them to ratify the Labour Statistics Convention, 1985 (No. 160), as the most up-to-date instrument in this area, and resulting in the automatic denunciation of Convention No. 63. The Committee reminds the Government of the availability of ILO technical assistance in this regards.
