Damascene Conversions

Some of our regular male readers have been in touch to say that the trade unions are undergoing another amazing 'Damascene' conversion.

Having told their male members for years that they have no equal pay claims - the unions are apparently changing their tune - and that maybe they made a big boo boo, after all!

Now this is in response to the success of Stefan Cross Solicitors in establishing - as a matter of law - that non-bonus earning men have potentially the same claim as non-bonus earning women - providing their has been an equal pay settlement .

The unions are presumably very embarrassed that they told many male members to 'get lost' - when they made enquiries about equal pay.

Male union members who took up a claim with Action 4 Equality Scotland - report that they were told they had no claim for equal pay - in no uncertain terms - when they approached their union for advice.

Now the unions appear to be changing their tune - but yet again they made the wrong call - and let their own members down.

Many male union members will have lost out, big time - those who took up a claim with Action 4 Equality Scotland protected their position - but it's another example of the unions falling down on the job.
