PART V HORIZONTAL PROVISIONS RELEVANT TO THE FOUR FREEDOMS

CHAPTER 1 SOCIAL POLICY
Article 69 1. Each Contracting Party shall ensure and maintain the application of the principle that men and women should receive equal pay for equal work.
For the purposes of this Article, ‘pay’ means the ordinary basic or minimum wage or salary and any other consideration, whether in cash or in kind, which the worker receives, directly or indirectly, in respect of his employment from his employer.
Equal pay without discrimination based on sex means:
(a) that pay for the same work at piece rates shall be calculated on the basis of the same unit of measurement;
(b) that pay for work at time rates shall be the same for the same job.
2. Annex XVIII contains specific provisions for the implementation of paragraph 1.
