Convention (n° 95) sur la protection du salaire, 1949 - Iles Salomon (Ratification: 1985)

The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous comments initially made in 2013.

Repetition

Article 16 of the Convention. Measures giving effect to the provisions of the Convention. The Committee has been commenting for more than 20 years on the absence of express provisions in the labour legislation giving effect to specific requirements of the Convention, such as the need to limit the attachment of wages to the extent necessary for the maintenance of the worker and his/her family (Article 10), the privileged protection of wage claims in the case of the employer’s bankruptcy (Article 11), the payment of wages on working days and at the workplace (Article 13(1)), and the issue of a pay slip at the time of each payment of wages (Article 14(b)). In its latest report, the Government indicates that certain changes are being considered in the context of the ongoing revision of the Labour Act (Cap. 73). Noting that the labour law reform process has been launched in 2005, the Committee hopes that the Government will take timely action to complete that process and to bring the national legislation into full conformity with the provisions of the Convention.
