"Madam President, it is sad that, even after many years of efforts made by the European Parliament, there is still discrimination in many EU States against the fairer sex in employment relations. The fact that employees should receive the same pay for the same work regardless of age, race or gender is, it seems, still unknown to many employers. It is therefore right to continue to seek effective mechanisms that will help eliminate unjustified differences in pay between men and women. However, it has long been agreed that imposing excessive administrative burdens on small and medium-sized enterprises in the EU is tantamount to bullying. I would therefore like to propose that we refrain from using this report to impose further administrative obligations on small and medium-sized enterprises, and that we transfer responsibility for the fulfilment of the measures proposed in point 2.3 of to the state institutions, tax authorities and social insurance agencies, which should now have all necessary data on the wage policies of employers and employment contracts of their employees."@en1
