The Committee asks the Government to supply information on the following points.

Article 2 of the Convention. The Committee notes that, under section 275 (Title V, Chapter II) of the Organic Labour Act, domestic workers are excluded from the scope of application of Title III (remuneration). It recalls that they were covered by the provisions concerning wages of the Labour Act of 1983. Recalling also that the Government did not indicate in its first report the exclusion of domestic workers from the scope of the Convention in accordance with Article 2(3), the Committee requests the Government to indicate the measures taken to apply the Convention as regards domestic workers. Please also state whether the special categories of workers such as homeworkers (Title V, Chapter IV, in particular, section 291) and rural workers (Chapter VI) are covered by Title III as well as by these special provisions.

Article 8. (i) Please provide information on the law that sets forth the cases and the limits in which the wage can be pledged as guarantee in accordance with section 132 of the Act. (ii) Please clarify the relation between the provisions of section 132 (unique paragraph) concerning the deductions from wages (in enterprises with more than 50 employees, upon the request of the employee) and those of section 446 which obliges the employer to deduct from wages contributions to trade unions.

Articles 14(b) and 15(d). The Committee recalls that the Government's report received in February 1991 referred to the maintenance of personnel register by the employer under section 87 of the Regulation on the Social Security Act. It asks the Government to indicate whether measures have been taken to require: (i) the information for the employee of the variable particulars of wages at the time of each payment, and (ii) the maintenance by the employer of records of the wage payments, by such means as regulations made under the Organic Labour Act.
