Policy on pay scale equity
ITU is dedicated to ensuring fair pay scales for all staff members, irrespective of gender, as mandated by Article 43 of Government Law No. 657. Pay is determined solely based on factors such as service class, job title, staff rank, and educational qualifications,
with no consideration of gender. To understand the specifics of salary and wages, please refer to the provided information. In line with this commitment, ITU adheres to SDG 8.2.1 and follows a policy of providing equal compensation for equivalent
work among its employees with similar attributes. Further details on this matter can be found in ITU's directives and policies. Additionally, our unwavering commitment to gender equality is underscored in Article 6 of the ITU Women's Studies Center
Science, Engineering, and Technology Policy, as well as Article 5 of the ITU Sexual Harassment and Gender Prevention Policy, which reaffirms our resolve to eradicate gender disparities.
Pay scale equity is further reinforced with ITU Gender Equality Plan. We are committed to measure and eliminate gender pay gaps. The objectives of ITU Gender Equality Plan are:
● To increase opportunities for career advancements in administration positions.
● To set up mechanisms of monitoring, evaluating, and benchmarking gender equality.
● To improve existing complaint and support mechanisms for the prevention of sexual harassment, gender-based violence, and discrimination.
● To increase awareness on the integration of gender equality perspectives in research and teaching.
● To provide a balance in the percentages of women and men faculty, researchers, and students in programs and ranks where there is a balance.
● To establish work-life balance mechanisms and make them available to all members of the university.
