Article 3 of the Convention. Objective job evaluation. For a number of years the Committee has been drawing the Government’s attention to the need to use objective and non-discriminatory criteria, such as skills required, effort, responsibilities and conditions of work, for job evaluation through the examination of the tasks involved. It also previously noted that a study conducted in 2009 with ILO support concluded that it was necessary to have an objective job classification. The Committee notes the Government’s reaffirmation that steps are being taken to improve the manner in which jobs are objectively evaluated and that information will be provided in this respect. The Committee again requests the Government to supply information on the specific steps taken to encourage objective job evaluation and the revision of job classifications, for both the public and private sectors, in cooperation with the employers’ and workers’ organizations.

Enforcement. The Committee notes the Government’s statement that the issue of wage equality is taken fully into account by labour inspectors. However, the Committee observes that no evidence to support this statement is provided. The Committee again requests the Government to supply information, including any extracts from inspection reports, on the specific monitoring activities conducted in enterprises by labour inspectors with regard to pay equality and on any complaint relating to pay discrimination received by labour inspectors. The Government is also requested to indicate whether awareness-raising and training activities concerning equal remuneration are being conducted or planned for labour inspectors and judges, to enable them to detect gender wage disparities and to take the appropriate measures to eliminate them.

Statistics. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that the issue of statistics is being addressed. The Committee requests the Government once again to take the necessary steps to collect data on pay levels for men and women in the public and private sectors and hopes that it will soon be in a position to provide such information. The Committee also requests the Government to provide any data available or any estimate that would enable it to evaluate gender pay gaps in the labour market.
