Article 1 of the Convention. Work of equal value. Legislation. The Committee recalls its previous observation in which it noted that section 78 of the Employment Relations Promulgation (ERP), 2007, does not give full legislative expression to the principle of the Convention because it restricts the comparison of remuneration to men and women holding the “same or substantially similar qualifications” employed in the “same or substantially similar circumstances”. The Committee recalls that such legislation should not only provide for equal remuneration for equal, the same or similar work, but should also address situations where men and women perform different work, requiring different qualifications and involving different circumstances, that is nevertheless work of equal value (see General Survey on fundamental Conventions, 2012, paragraph 673). The Committee noted previously the Government’s reply that this issue would be referred to the Employment Relations Advisory Board for consideration. The Committee notes with regret, however, that the Government’s present report contains no information on this point. The Committee urges the Government to take the necessary steps to amend section 78 of the ERP so as to give full legislative expression to the principle of equal remuneration for men and women for work of equal value, and to provide information on the progress made in this respect.
The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
