South Lanarkshire Council
South Lanarkshire Council is the only council in Scotland – not to have made significant payments to its women workers over Single Status and Equal Pay.
Every other council across Scotland has by now made sizeable ‘compensatory’ payments, worth thousands of pounds in many cases.
Peoples’ equal pay claims are based on the big differences in pay between traditional male and female jobs.
According to local council employees, the big pay differences in South Lanarkshire Council are just the same as in neighbouring councils, such as Glasgow and North Lanarkshire.
Stefan Cross Solicitors are challenging the way in which the council has dealt with Single Status and Equal Pay.
Around 1700 employees are currently pursuing equal pay claims against South Lanarkshire Council – many more are still entitled to make a claim – it’s not too late to do so even now.
Action 4 Equality Scotland has arranged a series of ‘drop in’ meetings to report on what’s been happening at the Employment Tribunals. If you want to hear more or if you think you have an equal pay claim, come along on one of the following dates:
