Glasgow Council Tackles Decades of Pay Inequality | Glasgow News

Glasgow City Council is finally tackling its decades-old equal pay crisis with a sweeping new pay structure set to cost over £100 million—adding to hundreds of millions already spent. The overhaul, the result of an eight-year push, aims to fix gender-based wage gaps by regrading staff, with 65% seeing raises, 11% facing pay cuts (with six months’ protection offered), and 24% seeing little change. Backdated increases will kick in from last October, and the council plans to roll out the changes in stages until April, expecting its wage bill to jump by £65 million in the first year. While the plan seeks to close legal loopholes and prevent future disputes, it’s clear not everyone will be pleased—with some households bracing for significant financial shifts.
