Articles 1 and 2 of the Convention. Minimum wage fixing machinery. The Committee notes the Government’s indications that a new set of wages regulation orders were issued in 2008 setting out the minimum pay rates for seven different categories of workers, i.e. security, agriculture, domestic, hotels, industrial, workers in offices of professionals and shop assistants. The Government also indicates that minimum wages have now been fixed for 20 different categories of hotel workers (instead of 16 in 2003) and seven categories for office workers (instead of four in 2003). The Committee requests the Government to supply more detailed information on the consultation process followed by the wages councils, in particular as regards the investigations they make before submitting their proposals pursuant to section 10(4) of the Wages Councils Act, Cap. 155 and the criteria (social, economic or other) they take into account in revising minimum pay rates.

Article 5 and Part V of the report form. Practical application. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would continue to provide up-to-date information on the application of the Convention in practice, including for instance, the approximate number of workers covered by the Convention, statistics on the evolution of the minimum wages in recent years as compared to the evolution of economic indicators, such as the inflation rate, in the same period, inspection results showing the number of visits carried out, violations of the minimum wage legislation observed and sanctions imposed, and copies of official reports or studies addressing issues of minimum wage policy.
