North Lanarkshire
A regular reader from North Lanarkshire was in touch last week to ask if she could transfer her equal pay claim to Action 4 Equality Scotland - because she is completely fed up at the way her trade union has been handling things.
The answer is Yes and if there are other people out there in North Lanarkshire who feel the same way - then just drop me a note at: markirvine@compuserve.com
North Lanarkshire Council has made settlement offers to A4ES clients, but these have been rejected as unsatisfactory - and as a poor deal for the claimants.
So a full scale 'GMF' or defence hearing is the next step which will require the Council to explain and justify the big differences in pay - between traditional male and female Council jobs.
