Protection of Wages Convention, 1949 (No. 95) - Djibouti (RATIFICATION: 1978)

DISPLAYINEnglish - French - Spanish

CMNT_TITLE

The Committee notes with concern that the Government’s report has not been received. It is therefore bound to repeat its previous comments.
Repetition
The Committee notes the joint observations of the General Union of Djibouti Workers (UGTD) and the Labour Union of Djibouti (UDT) received on 4 May 2021 on Convention No. 95.
In order to provide a comprehensive view of the issues relating to the application of the ratified Conventions on wages, the Committee considers it appropriate to examine Conventions Nos 26 and 99 (minimum wages) and 95 (protection of wages) together.

Minimum wages

Articles 1 to 3 of Convention No. 26 and Articles 1 and 3 of Convention No. 99. Minimum wage fixing machinery. Further to its latest comments on the need to reintroduce the guaranteed interoccupational minimum wage (SMIG), which was withdrawn from the legislation in 1997, the Committee welcomes the information provided by the Government in its report, particularly in respect of the approval by the National Council for Labour, Employment and Social Security of a draft amendment to the Labour Code aimed at reintroducing the minimum wage. The Committee notes with satisfaction that Act No. 221/AN/17/8th L of 2017, by amending section 60 of the Labour Code, effectively reintroduced the SMIG as from 1 January 2018.

Protection of wages

Articles 8(1) and 10 of Convention No. 95. Deductions from and attachments of wages. Further to its latest comments on the need to review the conditions in which wage deductions can be made and to limit the amount thereof, the Committee notes the Government’s reference in its report to a draft text fixing portions of wages that are subject to progressive deductions and the related rates, which is under examination. The Committee also notes that by amending section 141 of the Labour Code, Act No. 221/AN/17/8th L of 2017 removed the possibility of allowing deductions from wages on the basis of an individual agreement. It also notes with satisfaction that the Code of Civil Procedure, adopted in 2018, fixes the portions of wages that may be subject to attachment. Lastly, it notes that a limit on the amount of deductions from wages made otherwise than by attachment is yet to be established. The Committee therefore requests the Government to indicate the progress made towards the adoption of a decree limiting the amount of these deductions, as provided for in section 142 of the Labour Code.
The Committee expects that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the near future.

Repetition
Article 8(1) of the Convention. Deductions from wages. The Committee notes the information contained in the Government’s latest report, according to which a draft Decree establishing the portions of wages subject to progressive deductions and the corresponding rates will be submitted shortly to the National Council for Labour, Employment and Social Security (CONTESS) for its opinion. According to the information provided by the Government, the objective of the draft Decree is to protect wages from excessive seizure orders and assignment, by establishing that a portion of wages cannot be subject to seizure. The Committee also notes the Government’s indications that it will proceed promptly with the amendment of section 141 of the Labour Code (Act No. 133/AN/05/5eL), which currently allows wage deductions on the basis of individual agreement. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on any progress achieved in this respect, and to supply copies of any new legislation on this subject.

The Committee requests the Government to provide up to date information on both issues, in the light of the provisions of the Labour Code (Act No. 133/AN/05/5èmeL).

Moreover, the Committee notes the communication of the General Union of Djibouti Workers (UGTD) received on 23 August 2007 concerning the application of the Convention. The UGTD states that whereas Chapter IV of the Labour Code, in particular section 152, provides for the protection of wages in the strict sense of the word, the absence of wage guarantees such as the guaranteed minimum inter-occupational wage (SMIG), which was abolished in September 1997, has deprived the workforce of real income protection. The Committee requests the Government to transmit any comments it may wish to make in reply to the observations of the UGTD.

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the near future.

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation which read as follows:

Article 8, paragraph 1, of the Convention. The Committee has been requesting the Government for the last ten years to clarify the meaning of section 107 of the Labour Code under which deductions may be made for deposits (consignations) prescribed by individual contracts of employment. In view of the fact that the Convention permits deductions from wages only under the conditions and to the extent prescribed by national laws or regulations or fixed by collective agreements or arbitral awards, the above provision would need to be revised and therefore the Committee ventures to suggest that the words “and the individual labour contract” (et les contrats individuels du travail) should be deleted while the expression “compulsory levies” (prélèvements obligatoires) should be defined by reference to specific provisions of the Labour Code authorizing such levies. The Committee hopes that the Government will take the necessary steps at the first suitable opportunity so as to bring the national legislation into conformity with this Article of the Convention on which it has been commenting for some years.

Article 12, paragraph 1, of the Convention and Part V of the report form. The Committee recalls its previous observations in which it requested the Government to provide concrete information on the nature and scale of the persistent problem of wage arrears in the public sector (e.g. number of workers affected, amount of accumulated wage debt, length of delay in payment, branches of economic activity concerned) and any measures taken to improve the current situation. The Committee regrets the absence of any response from the Government on this point. It notes with concern that, according to certain sources the wage arrears to teachers, security forces and civil servants vary at present from three to nine months’ pay, while recent World Bank figures indicate that the total amount of arrears in the public service (i.e. unpaid wages, unpaid contributions to pension funds and debts to private suppliers) represents more than 23 per cent of the GDP. The Committee refers in this connection to paragraphs 23, 360 and 411 to 412 of the General Survey of 2003 on the protection of wages in which attention was drawn to the ongoing wage crises in several African countries and invites the Government to send its observations on the issues raised in the present comments.

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future.

Article 8 of the Convention. In earlier comments, the Committee referred to section 107 of the Labour Code under which deductions may be made for deposits ("consignations") prescribed by contracts of employment, and requested the Government to clarify the meaning of this provision. In its reply, the Government indicates that apart from the possibilities of deduction referred to in previous reports, i.e. compulsory levies and payments in respect of housing and supplies furnished under the regulations provided for in section 95 of the Labour Code, no other form of deposit ("consignation") has been contemplated by virtue of section 107 of the Labour Code. The Committee points out, however, that according to the terms of the Convention the types and extent of deductions from wages should be prescribed by national laws or regulations or fixed by collective agreement or arbitration award and not by individual agreements. It therefore requests the Government to consider the adoption of suitable measures to specify the types and extent of deductions permitted under contracts of employment so as to ensure legislative conformity with this Article of the Convention. The Committee asks the Government to report on any progress achieved in this regard.

[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2003.]

CMNT_TITLE

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation, which read as follows:

Further to its previous observation, the Committee notes the Government’s indication that the problem of wage arrears was due to internal political conflicts which prevented the national administration from functioning properly. According to the information supplied by the Government in its report, these difficulties have now been overcome and as a result the Minister of Finance publicly announced in October 2000 that wage arrears would be settled with a first payment to be made before 20 November 2000. The Committee notes, however, that according to a press report, a copy of which was annexed in the Government’s report, the settlement of existing wage arrears would only be made possible through foreign financial aid which a neighbouring country was expected to offer. Recalling that in the absence of documented information it is difficult for the Committee to appreciate the nature and scale of the problem, the Committee requests the Government to provide full and up-to-date information on: (i) the actual size of outstanding debts due to wage-earners (number of workers affected, amount of sums owed, length of the delay in payment, number of enterprises concerned); and (ii) the concrete measures taken to improve the present situation, including measures to ensure effective supervision and strict application of penalties to prevent and punish infringements. It also asks the Government to provide a copy of the 1998 Act on Finance referred to in the joint communication of the Labour Union of Djibouti and the General Union of Djibouti Workers (UDT/UGTD) dated 26 April 1998.

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future.
