Edinburgh City Council - STOP PRESS

A client from Edinburgh City Council has been in touch to say that she has received a letter from Unison - belatedly asking if she wants help from the union in possibly pursuing an equal pay claim!

Unison - rather late in the day - has decided that APT&C staff (as well as manual workers) may well have a valid equal pay claim against their employer - which is what Action 4 Equality and Stefan Cross have been saying for years.

Unison is worried because - as well as pursuing the council - many people are also now suing their trade unions because of the union's failure to advise and support members properly over equal pay - many union members have lost thousands of pounds because of union negligence.

So, Unison are just trying to cover their backsides rather than taking a serious interest in their members rights to equal pay - if the latter were true they would have been encouraging members to pursue cases years ago.

Our advice - to existing Action 4 Equality/Stefan Cross clients is just to ignore the letter from Unison - if you are interested in pursuing a claim against Edinburgh City Council and holding the union to account as well, we are happy to help.
