Equal Pay

The Court of Appeal has, today, killed off the argument that the equal pay legislation does not apply where the woman is doing higher rated work than a man (rather than work rated the same).

In Redcar v Cleveland Borough Council, the Court rewrites s1(5) of the Equal Pay Act 1970 to make this clear - see para. 25 of the judgment.
