Public servants told not to attend equity rally

The Department of Labour actively discouraged staff from attending a lunchtime rally at Parliament to protest pay discrimination against women. Meanwhile the PSA has filed a complaint with the Human Rights Commission claiming that axing the investigation aimed at closing a pay gap for CFY social workers is an act of discrimination. See the TV3 coverage of the issue and the RNZ Checkpoint news item.
