Convention (n° 95) sur la protection du salaire, 1949 - Iran (République islamique d') (Ratification: 1972)

Article 2 of the Convention.Scope of application. The Committee notes that sections 189, 190 and 192 of the Labour Law provide for the possibility of exempting specific categories of workers from parts of the Labour Law through by-laws. The Committee requests the Government to indicate whether relevant by-laws have been adopted and indicate the measures taken, in this case, to ensure that the workers concerned benefit from the protection afforded by the Convention.

Article 7. Work stores. The Committee notes that there is no provision in the Labour Code regulating the use of work stores. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the manner in which it is ensured that workers are free from any coercion to make use of work stores or services, if they exist, and that when they use them, the goods or services are provided at fair and reasonable prices for the benefit of the workers concerned.

Article 15(c). Sanctions. The Committee notes that, with regard to the payment of wages, section 174 of the Labour Law stipulates sanctions only for offences under section 45 (deductions from wages) and the Note to section 41 (minimum wages). The Committee requests the Government to indicate the measures taken or envisaged to ensure that laws or regulations provide for effective sanctions in the event of non-payment of wages.

Articles 14(b) and 15(d). Wage statements and record-keeping. The Committee notes that the Labour Law does not seem to contain any provision applying these articles of the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to: (i) specify how it is ensured that workers are informed at the time of each payment of the particulars of their wages for the period concerned, for example by means of payslips (Article 14(b)); and (ii) indicate any legislative or administrative provisions regulating the form and manner in which payroll records must be kept, as well as the specific wage particulars to be shown in those records (Article 15(d)).
