E/C.12/IDN/CO/1 (c) Undertake to collect information on the situation of economic, social and cultural rights of ethnic groups in highlands, remote and border islands and areas, in collaboration with the national human rights institutions and civil society organizations. The Committee refers to the State party to its statement on poverty and the Covenant, adopted on 4 May 2001 (E/2002/22-E/C.12/2001/17, annex vii). Multiple discriminations 13. The Committee is concerned at the situation of several groups who suffer multiple discriminations, including stateless persons and persons without identity documentation, religious communities and other persons displaced by conflicts and natural disasters (art. 2.2). The Committee recommends that the State party adopt targeted policies in the 20152019 National Medium Term Development Plan for groups who experience multiple discriminations such as stateless persons and persons without identity documentation, religious communities and other persons displaced by conflicts and natural disasters, which include (a) the facilitation of the issuance of identity documents and birth and civil registration; (b) the provision of services and assistance to displaced persons and returnees; and (c) the provision of the necessary mental health services in post-conflict areas. Gender pay gap 14. The Committee is concerned about the considerable gender pay gap in the State party due to the concentration of women in lower-paying employment sectors and their underrepresentation in high level positions in the public and private sectors (art. 3). The Committee recommends that the State party: (a) Educate men and women about equal career opportunities with a view to promoting their pursuance of education and training in fields other than those traditionally dominated by either sex; (b) Undertake a survey and classification of work considered as being of equal value; (c) Promote women’s access to high level positions in the public and private sectors, including by implementing temporary special measures, and addressing obstacles to their career advancement, such as sexual harassment in the workplace and traditional gender role stereotypes.

The Committee is also concerned that the minimum wage is set at a level which enables a decent living only for the workers. Moreover, the Committee is concerned at the shortage of labour inspectors in the State party (art. 7). The Committee recommends that the State party: (a) Amend the provisions of Manpower Law No. 13 of 2003 so as to make written employment agreements compulsory; 5
