Employment law – Equal pay. Court of Session: Refusing an appeal by employers in an equal pay claim by employees who had been transferred to arm's length external organisations ('ALEOs') by Glasgow City Council, the court held that an employment tribunal (ET) had erred and the Employment Appeal Tribunal, reversing the ET, was correct to hold that the City Council and ALEOs were associated employers and the employees could therefore compare their pay with that of men still working for the City Council.
