The Charter for equal pay in the public sector brings together the Confederation, can-tons, communes and state-associated organisations that have undertaken to actively promote equal pay for women and men. The Federal Council intends to strengthen this Charter, in particular by setting up a committee to coordinate various measures and en-sure the exchange of information among signatories. At its first meeting yesterday in Bern, the committee chose three action areas to be prioritised in the coming years.
