Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1995, publiée 82ème session CIT (1995)

Convention (n° 95) sur la protection du salaire, 1949 - Portugal (Ratification: 1983)

Article 4. The Committee notes the Government's repeated reference to certain sections of the Act relating to individual employment contracts - sections 21(1)(g) (respecting the prohibition of refectories, canteens, stores, etc., operated for the purpose of making a profit), 91(1) and (3) (respecting the method of payment and authorizing partial payment in the form of allowances in kind and 92(3) (respecting the place of payment of wages). It notes that these sections are not sufficient to give effect to this Article of the Convention. The Committee can only reiterate its hope that, as the Government had indicated in the past, it will take the necessary measures to bring the law and regulations into conformity with national practice and with this provision of the Convention as regards the prohibition of the payment of wages in the form of liquor of high alcoholic content or of noxious drugs.
