The Committee notes that the Government's brief report contains no reply to its comments. It hopes that the next report will include a copy of Ministerial Circular Letter No. 4/1988 on non-discrimination against women, mentioned in the report, and full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:
1. Referring to its previous direct request, the Committee notes the statement in the report that no contravention of the equal pay provision had been detected by the labour inspectorate. The Committee requests the Government to provide information concerning the number of inspection visits made, in which particular attention has been paid to the enforcement of equal pay, and to provide copies of the official inspection letter and report of inquiry referred to in the Committee's previous direct request.
2. The Committee also again requests the Government to furnish information on the measures taken to provide guidance to employers on equal pay and to study the provisions of collective agreements and company regulations.
3. The Committee notes that the report of the Government contains no information in response to the Committee's request for information concerning a research project on women's wages, which was to have been undertaken by the Indonesian National Commission on Status of Women. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on any surveys or studies undertaken by the Commission or other agencies with a view to ensuring a more effective implementation of the Convention.
4. The Committee notes that the documents outlining job descriptions for all occupational categories, said to be attached to the Government's report, were unfortunately not received. The Committee hopes that this information will be forwarded with the Government's next report.
5. The Committee notes the text of the collective agreement between the Trade Union of the Niaga Bank and Insurance and Citibank. It hopes that with its next report the Government will supply copies of other collective agreements, including wage rates, for industries or enterprises employing a significant number of women workers.
6. The Committee notes that, for some years, the Government has not provided information sufficient to enable an appraisal of the extent to which the wage differential has been reduced through the application of the principle of the Convention. Accordingly, the Committee requests the Government to provide, in its next report, full information concerning the implementation in practice of the Convention including: (i) the salary scales applying in the public sector, with an indication of the percentage of men and women employed at different levels; and (ii) statistical data concerning the minimum or basic wage rates and the average actual earnings of men and women in the economy, broken down, where possible, by occupation or sector of employment, seniority or level of qualifications, as well as information on the corresponding percentage of women.
