Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1996, Publicación: 85ª reunión CIT (1997)

Convenio sobre igualdad de remuneración, 1951 (núm. 100) - Côte d'Ivoire (Ratificación : 1961)

1. The Committee notes with interest that, in the context of the measures taken under the new Labour Code, a draft Decree respecting wages, intended to replace the Decree of 9 February 1973 on the same subject, is currently being examined by the Government. The Committee requests the Government to indicate in its next report the progress achieved in the adoption of the above Decree and to transmit a copy of it when it is adopted.

2. Noting that the report does not contain a reply to the third point of its previous direct request, the Committee once again requests the Government to provide information in its next report on the measures that have been taken or are envisaged, with or without the technical assistance offered by the ILO, to follow up the draft study on the evaluation and classification of jobs referred to in its previous reports. It refers the Government in this respect to paragraphs 138 to 150 of its 1986 General Survey on equal remuneration, in which it explains the various methods of evaluating jobs and their use for the application of the principles set out in the Convention. While awaiting the completion of the draft text and the implementation of its results, the Committee requests the Government to provide information on the criteria used in practice to determine wage rates above the minimum legal wage, taking into account the principle of equal remuneration for work of equal value.
