The Committee notes with interest the adoption on 14 May 2000 of the Employment Act, No. 6 of 2000, which provides in section 6 that employers shall pay employees equal remuneration for work of equal value without any discrimination. Section 3 defines remuneration broadly as the wage or salary and any additional benefits, allowances or emoluments, in accordance with Article 1(a) of the Convention. The Committee also notes that, in the event of an alleged violation of the principle, the burden of proof is placed on the employer (section 6(2)).

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