Fighting for Equal Pay - Huddersfield TUC Meeting

Huddersfield TUC March Meeting

Kirklees UNISON have launched two important campaigns to address low pay and unequal pay for women

Unison have called on Kirklees Council to commit to its previous pledge to pay the living wage in Kirklees. The living is £13.45 an hour.

Kirklees Council Chief Executive has written to Unison stating Kirklees Council will not pay the living wage to its low-paid workforce, the majority of which are women.

Kirklees Unison are committed to campaign to get the Council to change it's policy. Kirklees Unison has also launched a campaign to lodge equal pay claims for 100s of women and to achieve compensation for years of lost earnings.

Mick Donoghue, the Branch Secretary of Kirklees UNISON, will be speaking at our March meeting about these two important campaigns.
