Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1990, publiée 77ème session CIT (1990)

Convention (n° 111) concernant la discrimination (emploi et profession), 1958 - Nicaragua (Ratification: 1967)

The Committee notes with regret 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 noted the information supplied by the Government that the Ministry of Labour has carried out a series of studies concerning employment on the Atlantic Coast, in connection with which many variables have been analysed (wages, integration of labour, posts held), regard being had to the ethnic factor.

The Committee asks the Government to supply a copy of these studies.

The Committee notes Decree No. 1091 of 28 July 1982, under which a Women's Bureau has been set up to "co-ordinate all programmes and actions carried out, whether in the state sector or in the private sector, to achieve the full development of Nicaraguan women ..." (section 1).

The Committee requests the Government to supply information on the activities that have been carried out by these bodies.
