Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2006, published 96th ILC session (2007)

Labour Statistics Convention, 1985 (No. 160) - Switzerland (Ratification: 1987)

The Committee notes the Government’s report concerning developments in the application of the Convention, the information supplied in reply to its previous comments and the attached statistics and corresponding methodological information.

In particular, it notes with satisfaction that Article 9 is now fully applied, with statistics on normal hours of work being compiled annually on the basis of reports of injuries to workers, while statistics on minimum wages and wage rates are derived from the survey of collective labour agreements (CCT) and classified by skills level and branch of activity.

The Committee is addressing a request directly to the Government on other points.
