FRégalité de traitement entre hommes et femmes
Definīcija:In 1957 Article 119 of the Treaty of Rome established the principle of equal pay for men and women doing equal work. After 1975 a series of directives extended the principle to equal treatment as regard access to employment, training, promotion and working conditions, so as to remove all forms of discrimination at work. Equal treatment was subsequently extended to social security regimes, whether official or private. Recognition of the principle led in the eighties to the promotion of equal opportunities through multiannual programmes. The Parliament would like revision of the Treaty to take account of the measures taken since 1957 and the implementation of the multiannual programmes. This could be done by including in Article 119 the concept of equality of opportunity, with a reference to the possibility of implementing positive action (q.v.).
