Work
Equal pay for local government female employees 22 Mar 2007
Equal Pay
Who’s going to pick up the tab for £3 billion plus?
An estimated one million local government employees, the vast majority of them women, could be demanding up to 5 billion pounds in equal pay claims. We ask who will pick up the tab in the Public Sector: the tax payer, the councils or employees themselves? And why is it now being claimed that many women will actually be worse off as a result of proposed changes to the pay structure.

Brian Strutton from the GMB Union and Steve Hopkins, a solicitor specialising in women’s equal pay claims, join Jenni to discuss.
