Event Date:

UNISON Belfast

The first time equal pay was raised as an issue for women was during the industrial revolution in the 1830’s!  Over 140 years later the Equal Pay Act (1970) came into force and yet still in 2014 there is a gender pay gap of 19.6%.   This course is aimed at activists who are interested in knowing more about identifying pay inequalities in pay and grading structures and advising members of their rights.
