Afficher en : Francais - EspagnolTout voir

The Committee notes that the Government’s report does not reply to its previous comments but merely indicates that the principle of equal remuneration for men and women for work of equal value is enshrined in law and applies to all workers.
Article 2 of the Convention. Collective agreements. The Committee recalls that clause 42 of the general collective agreement applying to workers in the Republic of Chad, which provides that “for equal conditions of work, length of service and professional qualification, wages shall be equal for all workers, whatever their age, sex and status”, is narrower than the principle of equal remuneration for work of equal value laid down in the Labour Code (section 246) and in the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to take the necessary steps to encourage the social partners to include a clause establishing the principle of equal remuneration for men and women for work of equal value in the abovementioned collective agreement when it is next renegotiated, and to provide detailed information on any measures taken in this regard. It also asks the Government to indicate whether, pursuant to section 379 of the Labour Code, it envisages revising the clauses of the general collective agreement that relate to wages and occupational classifications, and to provide a copy of any appendices to the abovementioned agreement that establish occupational classifications for each sector of activity.
Article 4. Collaboration with the social partners. The Committee again asks the Government to indicate the activities it has undertaken specifically with the employers’ organizations and workers’ organizations to promote equality in employment and occupation and, more particularly, the implementation of the principle of equal remuneration for men and women for work of equal value. It also asks the Government to provide information on the activities undertaken by the social partners themselves to foster better understanding and application of the principle laid down in the Labour Code and the Convention.
Enforcement. Labour inspection. The Committee notes that the Government merely indicates that labour inspectors ensure application of the Convention by means of inspections. The Committee requests the Government to provide details of the results of labour inspections (number of workplaces visited and men and women workers covered, infringements, reports, sanctions imposed, etc.) in order to enforce section 246 of the Labour Code. With reference to its previous comments, the Committee requests the Government to provide information on the resources and tools available to labour inspectors to enable them to identify wage discrimination and unequal pay, furnish advice on the best means of addressing it effectively and any remedies provided or sanctions imposed.
Statistics. Please provide all available statistical information, disaggregated by sex, on the employment of men and women in the various sectors of activity and occupations, including the public sector, and on their respective earnings.
