Uniform also heads. The English Court imposed a corporate attire for male employees in store (department of youth and sports sales) last summer, dressed as women. Now they will have to also men in positions of authority. So provides a judgment of the High Court on Thursday issued in response to a lawsuit filed by the CCOO and UGT trade unions in which they denounced the total failure of the equality plan of the company. The text recognizes "substantial progress" in terms of standardization of uniforms, but requires the company to take another step. "It has been established that the male controls, the controls unlike women, are not uniform," says the letter.
The judgment ruled that the company, which has declined to make an assessment of it, has "violated its commitments globally, as denounced by the plaintiffs." "He has developed a number of actions that allow us to see significant progress in achieving objectives of the plan," he continues. The National Court notes, however, that the uniforms are not the only point that has broken the company. The English Court has not provided on time data on the salaries of the commission to monitor the plan, which "has been delayed so grave annually required to propose measures to correct the differences."
"The English Court delayed the information because it would be clear that for unequal treatment," says Angel Martin, CC OO attorney. Vanesa Boat, secretary of equal section UGT trade, believes the company has "hidden" data, even from the union do not want to "assume" that occur inequalities. "We claim information and we'd better give us four years behind," says boat in relation to the data provided by the company last December, just days before trial.
The important thing, according to the UGT representative, is that justice recognizes that equality plans are a must and not just a legal formality to avoid penalties. The El Corte Inglés, signed in 2005, pioneered the department store sector. So the main trade unions, although less representation in the company, consider that the Spanish group should lead by example and show more commitment to compliance. UGT and CCOO resort studying whether the judgment dismissing most of the demand points. "Pay equity is important for women to" ditch Boat.
