The Committee notes with interest the adoption of the Act of 26 June 1997 on Minimum Wage Determination and Adjustment of Wages as well as the Regulations of 7 May 1997 to amend and supplement the Regulations to implement measures of active employment policy. The Committee requests the Government to provide information further to the implementation of the Act and the Regulations related to the application of the Convention.

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee notes the information contained in the Government's report and the attached documentation, including the General Collective Agreement for the Economic Sector and the Collective Agreement for the Non-Economic Sector and the statistical data on average monthly gross earnings in enterprises and other organizations. It also notes the provisions of the Act concerning Rates of Pay in Public Institutions, State Bodies and Local Community Bodies, 1992, and the information provided in the Government's 1993 report on the application of the UN Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women.

1. With reference to its previous comments on the Government's first report, the Committee notes with interest that draft labour legislation, which is in the final stage of preparation, includes provisions to prohibit discrimination explicitly. The draft legislation also provides that employers are obliged to pay their workers equal pay for equal work and for work of equal value, regardless of gender. All provisions of employment contracts, collective agreements and general acts of employers which are not in accordance with the equal pay provision will be null and void. The Committee looks forward to receiving copies of the text once it has been adopted.

2. The Committee notes that no special generally applicable method has been adopted to ensure an objective appraisal of work performed. It notes, however, the wage (and additional) tariffs set out in the general collective agreements furnished by the Government. It also notes that wages are levelled generally according to the degree of education required for particular jobs, the initial levelling having been done on the basis of an analysis of the requirements of different jobs, which are then ranked accordingly. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would supply copies of the relevant collective agreements from time to time with its reports on the application of the Convention.

3. The Committee notes with interest the provisions of the Human Rights Ombudsman Act, 1993. It also notes that, according to the report, no reports concerning equal remuneration had been made to the Ombudsman since that office began operating in January 1995. Please supply information on any action taken by the Ombudsman to ensure and promote the principle of the Convention.
