Article 2. Pension scheme coverage for seafarers.In its previous comment, the Committee noted the adoption of Act No. 212/AN/07/5ème L of 19 January 2008 establishing the National Social Security Fund (CNSS) and requested the Government to clarify if affiliation to the CNSS is compulsory for the owners of all ships registered in the territory of Djibouti, indicating any categories of seafarers excluded from entitlement to old-age pension benefits. The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report, specifying that, in principle an employer must declare his employees to the CNSS. The Committee takes note of this information and once again requests the Government to indicate whether there are any categories of seafarers that are excluded from entitlement to old-age pension benefits.
Article 3(1). Pension scheme for seafarers. With respect to its previous comments on section 1 of Act No. 17/AN/08/6ème L of 11 October 2008 that raised the age of retirement from 55 to 60 years, the Committee notes the absence of reply by the Government in its report to its request on the impact of the age increase on the rates of contribution for shipowners and seafarers and pensions’ amount and replacement rates. However, the Committee notes that, pursuant to section 51 of Act 154/AN/02/4ème L of 31 January 2002 as modified by Act No. 212/AN/07/5ème L of 19 January 2008 on the creation of the CNSS, old-age pension is calculated on the basis of the average salary of the last ten years, with an annuity rate of 2 per cent for the years up to 2001, of 1.8 per cent for the years between 2002 and 2006, and of 1.5 per cent from 2007.
The Committee recalls that, according Article 3 (1) (a) (ii) of the Convention, the pension must be at a rate not less than the total obtained by computing for each year of his sea service 2 per cent of the remuneration on the basis of which contributions were paid, if the pension scheme provides pensions at the age of 60 years. The Committee requests the Government to indicate how it ensures that the 2 per cent of remuneration is computed for each year of sea service for seafarers who are registered to the CNSS, following the increase in the retirement age to 60 years. .
