Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes with satisfaction the adoption of Republic Act No. 6725 of 12 May 1989 which amends section 135 of the Labour Code by making unlawful and liable to penal sanctions, inter alia, payment of a lesser compensation, including wage, salary or other fringe benefits, to a female employee than to a male employee, for work of equal value; and the favouring of a male employee over a female with respect to promotion, training opportunities, study and scholarship. It also notes the guidelines promulgated, in consultation with major women's organisations and labour unions, to implement the provisions of Act No. 6725.
