Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2018, published 108th ILC session (2019)

Equal Remuneration Convention, 1951 (No. 100) - Ukraine (Ratification: 1956)

Articles 2(2)(c) and 4 of the Convention. Collective agreements. The Committee previously noted that under the General Agreement, parties had agreed to recommend that collective agreements should include provisions on gender equality and therefore requested the Government to indicate the measures taken, in cooperation with the social partners, to include explicit provisions on equal remuneration for men and women. The Committee notes the Government’s indication in its report that sectoral agreements set out remuneration rates for each occupation depending on an employee’s skill level. The Government further indicates that gender equality trainings, including a component on gender pay equality, were provided to trade unions. The Committee notes however that the Government does not provide information on whether collective agreements contain specific provisions on equal pay. Consequently, the Committee once again requests the Government to indicate the measures taken, in cooperation with the social partners, to include explicit provisions on equal remuneration for men and women for work of equal value in collective agreements. Please provide examples of relevant provisions of collective agreements which relate specifically to the principle of the Convention.
