Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 1998, Publicación: 87ª reunión CIT (1999)

Further to its previous observations concerning differentials in the wages paid to women and men in the sugar industry, the Committee notes with satisfaction the information provided by the Barbados Workers' Union on the job evaluation exercise carried out in the sugar industry, which has resulted in the removal of pay differentials based on sex, in conformity with the Convention.

The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
