Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 2018, publiée 108ème session CIT (2019)

Afficher en : Francais - EspagnolTout voir

Article 1 of the Convention. Legislation. Since 2009, the Committee has repeatedly requested the Government to take all necessary steps to amend section 108 of Labour Act No. 23/2007, which provides for the right to equal pay for equal work, with a view to ensuring that it fully reflects the principle of equal remuneration for men and women for “work of equal value”. Noting the Government’s indication that the principle of the Convention is covered by this provision, the Committee once again recalls that the concept of “work of equal value” includes, but goes beyond equal remuneration for “equal”, “the same” or “similar” work, and also encompasses work that is of an entirely different nature, which is nevertheless of equal value. The Committee once again asks the Government to take all necessary steps to amend section 108 of Labour Act No. 23/2007 in order to bring it fully in line with the Convention. The Committee also reminds the Government of the possibility of availing itself of ILO technical assistance to this end.
The Committee is raising other matters in a request addressed directly to the Government.
