Convention (n° 160) sur les statistiques du travail, 1985 - Ile de Man

The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in reply to its previous request concerning Article 13 of the Convention. It notes in this regard that statistics on household income and expenditure are derived from the Isle of Man Household Income and Expenditure Survey. The latest survey refers to 2013, and the previous one refers to 2007.

Article 8 of the Convention. Structure and distribution of the economically active population. The Committee notes that the Government of the Isle of Man carried out its most recent population census in 2011. Census data and methodological information relating to the 2011 household and housing census has been supplied to the ILO Department of Statistics for publication on the ILOSTAT database. The Committee invites the Government to continue to provide updated data and methodology as well as to provide information on any developments in relation to the implementation of the Resolution concerning statistics of work, employment and labour underutilization (Resolution I), adopted by the 19th International Conference of Labour Statisticians (October 2013).

Article 9(2). Compilation of statistics of time rates of wages and normal hours of work. The Government indicates once again that time rates of wages and hours are not currently compiled but that their compilation remains under consideration. In this regard, the Government indicates that it may be possible to require compulsory returns from employers without amending the Statistics Act. The Committee therefore reiterates its previous request that the Government provide information on any measures taken or contemplated in relation to implementation of Article 9(2) of the Convention regarding the compilation of statistics of time, wage rates and normal hours of work.

Article 16. Acceptance of obligations. The Committee invites the Government to continue to provide information on the possibility of accepting the obligations of Articles 7 and 11 of the Convention.
