Work of the Same Value
Work that, while potentially different in tasks, is considered equivalent based on objective criteria for remuneration purposes.
Definition
This concept, central to equal pay legislation, refers to jobs that may not be identical but are considered equivalent in terms of their overall value to the employer. The Czech Labour Code specifies criteria for assessing 'work of the same value,' including the complexity, responsibility, and strenuousness of the work, the difficulty of working conditions, and the work performance and results achieved. This allows for comparison of dissimilar jobs to identify and address potential pay discrimination.
