1. The Committee notes with interest the Guide for the preparation of the Descriptive Manual of Jobs in the Public Sector which was completed in 1991, as well as the Catalogue for the classification of jobs. It requests the Government to supply information in its next report on the effect given, in practice, to the Guide and the new Classification, with a view to applying the principle of equal remuneration for men and women workers.
2. The Committee recalls its previous comments on the concept of equal remuneration as set forth in the national legislation, which is more limited than the principle contained in Article 2 of the Convention. The Committee notes the explanations provided to the effect that the application of systems for the objective appraisal of jobs ensures equal remuneration for work of equal value. With a view to being able to verify this wage practice, the Committee once again requests the Government to supply copies of recent collective agreements fixing wages in the private sector, and detailed information on the application in practice of the principle of equal remuneration for work of equal value, particularly in sectors employing a large proportion of women.
