In order to provide a comprehensive view of the issues relating to the application of the ratified Conventions on wages, the Committee considers it appropriate to examine Conventions Nos 26 (minimum wages) and 95 (protection of wages) together.

Minimum wage

Article 3 of Convention No. 26. Minimum wage-fixing machinery and consultation with the social partners. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report, according to which a decree concerning the re-evaluation of the minimum interoccupational guaranteed wage rates (SMIG) will be published shortly, following the work of the National Labour Advisory Commission.

Article 4. System of supervision and sanctions. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes the information provided by the Government according to which a procedure will be established for the collection of statistical data regarding the settlement of wages.

Wage protection

Article 12(1) of Convention No. 95. Payment of wages at regular intervals. Further to its previous comments concerning accumulated wage debt, the Committee requests the Government to provide updated information on any persistent difficulties in either the public or the private sector and the measures taken in response to such situations.
