DISPLAYINEnglish - French - SpanishAlle anzeigen

With reference to its previous direct requests, the Committee notes the information supplied by the Government in its report.

1. The Committee notes that, according to the Government, the study on wages has been suspended due to problems of an administrative and financial nature. The Committee hopes that the Government will be in a position to supply with its next report the results of the work of the special committee established in April 1986 to undertake this study and that it will also indicate their implications for the application of the principle laid down in the Convention.

2. The Committee also notes the suspension of the study of the specific conditions of service applying to the various branches of the public service, carried out under Act No. 80-22 of 1981 establishing the general conditions of service of public servants. The Committee requests the Government to supply information on the progress achieved in establishing these conditions of service and to transmit copies of them when they have been adopted, as it expressed the intention of doing in its report.

3. The Government repeats that due to a state of extremely acute crisis it has been prevented from amending the Labour Code but will not fail, when the Code is reviewed, to take account of the definition of equal remuneration laid down in the Convention. The Committee hopes that the Government's next report will contain information on any progress achieved in this respect.

4. The Committee notes the Government's indications to the effect that there is no official system for the objective evaluation of jobs on the basis of the work to be performed and that it envisages in future establishing such a system with the assistance of the ILO, which it will request at the appropriate time. The Committee requests the Government to keep it informed of the progress achieved in this respect and recalls that the ILO is at its disposal for any technical assistance that it may wish to request.
