Convenio sobre la protección del salario, 1949 (núm. 95) - Mauricio (Ratificación : 1969)

Article 3, 7 and 14(a) of the Convention. Prohibition of the payment of wages in the form of vouchers, coupons or in any other form alleged to represent legal tender. Works stores. Information on wages before entering employment and when any changes occur. The Committee notes that the Workers’ Rights Act 2019 does not contain provisions giving effect to these Articles of the Convention. The Committee therefore requests the Government to provide information on the manner in which it is ensured that: (i) the payment of wages in the form of promissory notes, vouchers or coupons, or in any other form alleged to represent legal tender is prohibited (Article 3); (ii) the workers are free from any coercion to make use of work stores or services and, that when they use them, the goods or services are provided at fair and reasonable prices for the benefit of the workers concerned (Article 7); the workers are informed, in an appropriate and easily understandable manner, before they enter employment and when any changes take place, of the conditions in respect of wages under which they are employed (Article 14(a)).
