1. The Committee notes with interest, from the detailed report supplied in reply to its previous request, that the Government has taken measures to implement job evaluation systems with a view to promoting the principle of equal pay for work of equal value. It notes in particular the Act of 17 June 1988, amending the Act of 26 January 1984 on the principles to be applied in establishing pay systems in enterprises; and the Act of 31 January 1989 on the financial means for remuneration in the budgetary, or public, sphere (replacing Order No. 49 of 10 February 1987, to which reference was made in the Committee's previous request).

In this connection it notes the statement in the report that job evaluation is carried out in accordance with uniform principles, resulting in a uniform table of basic pay.

The Committee also notes from the report that statistical data on the impact of the job evaluation scheme on pay should shortly become available, and it hopes the Government will communicate this information with its next report, along with information on any further developments.

2. The Committee also notes from the report that women's wages are lower than men's wages, as a high percentage of women are occupying low-paying jobs. It notes the statement that the data available confirm that the difference in wages of men and women results from the character of the work performed. The Committee recalls the basic principle of equal pay for work of equal value, and requests the Government to keep it informed in future reports of the evolution of women's and men's wages in this connection.
