Equal Pay
Statement
Ayrshire College is committed to the principle
of equal opportunities in employment and,
more specifically, that pay should be awarded
fairly and equitably regardless of age, disability,
gender identity, marital status, pregnancy and
maternity, race, religion or belief (including no
religion or belief), sex, and sexual orientation.
We believe all staff should receive
equal pay for work of equal value, for
the same work or broadly similar work
and work-rated as equivalent.
The Post-16 Education (Scotland) Act 2013
reintroduced National Bargaining within the
Further Education sector. In November 2015 a
National Joint Negotiating Committee (NJNC)
was established as the body within the Sector
with the authority to negotiate and agree on
the terms and conditions contained within
the National Recognition and Procedures
Agreement (NRPA) 6 including pay, working hours
and annual leave. Th
