Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2009, published 99th ILC session (2010)

Equal Remuneration Convention, 1951 (No. 100) - Comoros (Ratification: 1978)

Display in: French - SpanishView all

Article 2, paragraph 2(a), of the Convention. Principle of equal remuneration for work of equal value. Legislation. The Committee notes that according to the Government’s report, in the context of the draft revision of the Labour Code, particularly section 97, the draft section on equal remuneration states that all employers must ensure equal remuneration for the same work or for work of equal value. The Committee also notes the communication from the Comoros Employers’ Organization (OPACO) dated 1 September 2009, which states that the revision of section 97 of the Labour Code has not yet been carried out. It notes the Government’s reply referring the OPACO to its report. The Committee asks the Government to indicate the progress of the legislative work relating to the revision of the Labour Code and hopes that the new Labour Code, giving full expression to the principle of equal remuneration for men and women for work of equal value, will be adopted in the near future. The Committee asks the Government to supply information on the role of the social partners in the process of the revision of the Labour Code and to send a copy of the new Code once it has been adopted.

The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
