Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2006, Publicación: 96ª reunión CIT (2007)

The Committee notes the information provided in reply to its previous comments. It notes with interest that quarterly statistics of average earnings are now collected and compiled by the new Quarterly Employment Statistics Survey (Part 2) and that they correspond to the requirements of Part II of the Convention. It would be grateful if the Government would indicate whether, with a view to improving the analysis of the operation of the labour market, it is envisaged to collect and compile statistics of average hours of work (hours actually worked or hours paid for) and to compile statistics of average hourly earnings.

Further to its general observation of 2000, the Committee notes the Government’s indications that consultations and investigations will be conducted concerning the possibility of ratifying Convention No. 160. It would be grateful if the Government would keep the ILO informed of any progress in this respect.
