Convention (n° 63) concernant les statistiques des salaires et des heures de travail, 1938 - Guernesey

The Committee notes the Government’s report which was received at the ILO on 25 August 2010. It notes that the report is confined to indicating that no changes have occurred. In its previous report, the Government had indicated that it regularly collects information relating to statistics on wages and hours of work through its tax and social security systems and that it carries out an annual voluntary survey of a cross-section of local businesses, with the purpose of seeking information on wages and hours of work; it also periodically obtains relevant information through its arbitration and conciliation services in the event of disputes relating to pay and conditions of work.

The Committee recalls that according to Articles 1, 5, 6, 9 and 10 of the Convention, statistics relating to wages and hours of work should be compiled, published and communicated to the ILO on a regular basis. The Committee requests the Government to communicate statistics of average earnings and of hours actually worked at the earliest possible date.

In this regard, the Committee draws the Government’s attention to Resolution I adopted by the 18th International Conference of Labour Statisticians concerning the measurement of working time.
