Glasgow Council Equal Pay Reckoning | Glasgow News

from Glasgow News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Glasgow City Council is rolling out a long-awaited equal pay system set for April 2027, aiming to fix decades of gender pay inequality — but it means roughly 1,000 staff (11%) could face pay cuts. The council plans to soften the blow with six months of protected pay and regrading to minimize losses, though the new rates will become permanent after that. Negotiations are ongoing, with unions preparing to vote on acceptance; if talks fail, “fire and rehire” may be on the table. The financial impact is huge, with millions in back pay and potential borrowing needed — a complex move toward fairness that’s already hitting some workers hard.
