Equal Remuneration Convention, 1951 (No. 100) - Bangladesh (RATIFICATION: 1998)

Article 2(2)(c) of the Convention. Collective agreements. The Committee notes that the Government’s report contains no information regarding the Committee’s previous request for information on the application of the Convention through collective bargaining and conciliation procedures. It therefore asks the Government once again to indicate whether any collective agreements or conciliation procedures have explicitly addressed the issue of equal remuneration of men and women and, if so, to provide details thereof. The Committee further reiterates its request to the Government to provide examples of collective agreements, including any agreements concluded regarding export processing zones.

Article 4. Cooperation with workers’ and employers’ organizations. The Committee notes the Government’s very general indications regarding cooperation with workers’ and employers’ organizations. The Committee encourages the Government once again to seek actively the cooperation of workers’ and employers’ organizations, in particular with regard to training and awareness-raising measures on the Convention’s principle and the related provisions of the Labour Act. Please indicate any measures taken in this regard.
