Practical application. The Committee recalls that appropriate data and statistics are crucial in determining the nature, extent and causes of discrimination and unequal remuneration, to set priorities and design appropriate measures, to monitor and evaluate the impact of such measures, and make any necessary adjustments (see 2012 General Survey on the fundamental Conventions, paragraph 891). The Committee requests the Government to provide detailed information on the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice, including information on the outcome of inspection activities and on the number and nature of contraventions reported and penalties imposed, and the number and nature of complaints addressed to the courts relating to violations of the relevant legislation. Please also provide information on the distribution of women and men in the various economic sectors and occupations, and their corresponding earnings, in both the public and private sectors. The Committee further requests the Government to provide information on any other measures taken or envisaged that would permit an assessment of the remuneration levels of men and women as well as wages differentials.
