Definition
The Wet gelijke behandeling van mannen en vrouwen (WGBMV), or Equal Treatment (Men and Women) Act, is a specific Dutch law that prohibits discrimination between men and women in employment. It particularly focuses on ensuring equal treatment in terms and conditions of employment, including remuneration, for equal or equivalent work. While predating the AWGB, it is explicitly referenced and complemented by the broader AWGB.
