Management Meetings
A relatively small number of readers from North Lanarkshire Council have been in touch - over meetings they have been asked to attend with local managers - to 'discuss' their equal pay claims.
Apparently, these meetings are being arranged at short notice - and the purpose of the meeting is not being made clear in advance - which is all rather odd.
Whilst people may understandably be a bit unnerved at such goings on - there's no need to get upset or worried.
If you are asked to attend such a meeting - by all means go along.
You are, of course, not obliged to say anything - so just listen politely.
Most importantly - don't agree to or sign anything - without taking proper advice.
Might also be wise to make a brief note of who is present and what is said - and keep this safe for future reference, if necessary.
If you are anxious at all about these meetings, drop Mark Irvine a note at:
