Abstract: The Constitution of the Republic of Serbia and its legal framework guarantee equal pay for equal work or work of equal value for the employee. Work of equal value refers to work that requires the same qualifications, i.e., education, knowledge, and skills, implying that equal work contribution corresponds with equal responsibility. In the paper, the authors, using the normative and comparative law method, deal with the concept, normative structure, and implementation of equal pay for equal work or work of equal value principle. It also investigates the term and legal nature of equal pay and work of equal value, as well as the rights to compensation, providing key examples of judicial practice.
