Men fight and lose the battle, and the thing that they fought for comes about in spite of their defeat, and when it comes turns out not to be what they meant, and other men have to fight for what they meant under another name. (William Morris - A Dream of John Ball)

Equal Pay discussion at the UNISON NEC

The NEC received a comprehensive report, the contents of which were confidential and legally privileged. The issue of equal pay is now taking up the majority of the time of our senior national officials. It is not possible to go into detail about the report received at the meeting. Further briefings will be arranged for branches in the Region and the website will be updated.

The good news of a recent settlement between UNISON and Glasgow City Council was reported to the meeting, although details were awaited. This settlement appears to have achieved an important breakthrough in protecting the earnings of those who may lose out in a pay and grading review.
