No employer will pay more to men and less to women for similar work in their
institution. In other words men and women will be paid equal wages for similar work.
If men are given good or high wages in a factory or institute before the coming of
this law, then after the introduction of the Highest Remuneration Act, it will also be
given to the women employed on that work.

to equal the wages of women, doing so would be considered a violation of this law.
