........well, I think I read the entire article sandwiched between a thousand advertisements and I did not see any “equal pay” for “equal work” and “equal experience”.

So, are we to believe that in Iceland a company that has a “man” with a PHD and 20 years experience in his field must be paid the same as the lady that cleans the office?

From the article:

evaluate every job that's being done, and then they get a certification after they confirm the process if they are paying men and women equally."

If the job is the same, men and women get paid equally for doing it. Seems clear, and fair, enough.

The headline got it wrong.

ICELAND ADDS NEW LAW REINFORCING BUREAUCRACY is more accurate.

You did see the part about certification forms for companies with 25+ employees, right?
