Articles 1 and 2 of the ConventionLegislative developments. The Committee notes that section 26(4) of Labour Act No. 1474, which provided for equal wages for men and women for work of the same nature with the same output, has been repealed by the new Labour Act of 22 May 2003 (No. 4857). Recalling its previous comments concerning section 26(4) of Act No. 1474, the Committee notes with satisfaction that section 5(4) of the new Labour Act provides that a lower wage cannot be fixed for the same work or work of equal value on the ground of sex, which is in accordance with the Convention. A violation of section 5 constitutes an administrative offence punishable with a fine of 50 million Turkish liras (section 99). The Committee asks the Government to provide information in its future reports on the practical application and enforcement of section 5(4) of the Labour Act. Such information should include indications concerning the measures taken by the labour inspectors to monitor compliance with section 5(4), relevant judicial and administrative decisions and any sanctions imposed for non-compliance.

The Committee is raising other matters in a request addressed directly to the Government.
