The ILO Convention 100 on Equal Pay for Work of Equal Value recognizes that women and men must receive equal remuneration for work of equal value, and entails a number of questions ...
“What does work of equal value mean?”
“How do we value work that is similar?“
“How do we attribute value to work that is equiparable in terms of skills, effort and responsibility?"
The ILO has been distilling solutions from the international experience. One of them is the good practice carried out by the social parties in Portugal, the project “Revalorizar o Trabalho para Promover a Igualdade”. The project successfully developed and applied a pay equity methodology to the food & beverages sector.

The “EC/UN Partnership on Gender Equality for Development and Peace” is an initiative that involves the European Commission (EC), the United Nations Fund for Women (UNIFEM) and the International Training Centre of the International Labour Organization (ITCILO). It is a follow-up to the “Owning Development. Promoting Gender Equality in New Aid Modalities and Partnerships” conference that was jointly organized by the European Commission and UNIFEM in November 2005.
The EC/UN partnership aims to identify approaches with which to integrate gender equality and women’s human rights into new aid modalities, in accordance with the Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness.
