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

Convention (n° 26) sur les méthodes de fixation des salaires minima, 1928 - Seychelles (Ratification: 1978)

The Committee notes, from the Government's last report, which was received in March 1990, that a new Employment Act was adopted in 1985 and that new Wages Regulations were adopted in 1987 after consultation with the trade unions and the Federation of Employers' Associations in accordance with section 46 of the above Act. The Committee will examine these texts at its next session.

The Committee notes, from the Government's report, that the labour inspection services and the competent services of the Ministry of Employment and Social Affairs are responsible for the enforcement of the Employment Act, including the provisions concerning minimum wages. In this connection, the Committee requests the Government to indicate the number of workers covered by the Wages Regulations as regards minimum wages (Article 5 of the Convention) and to supply general information on how effect is given to the Convention in practice by supplying, for example, extracts of the reports of the labour inspection services (Part V of the report form).
