格拉斯哥市议会已同意暂缓解雇后重新聘用2.3万多名员工的计划。
Glasgow City Council has agreed to pause plans to fire and rehire more than 23,000 members of staff.
在副首席大臣珍妮·吉尔鲁思主持下，市议会与三个工会举行了线上会谈，随后作出了这一决定。
The decision follows online talks between the council and three trade unions, chaired by Deputy First Minister Jenny Gilruth.
市议会与GMB、Unison和Unite工会的谈判将于下周初恢复，双方将争取就薪酬问题达成新协议。原定发给员工、告知其解雇后重新聘用计划的信函将不予寄出。
Negotiations between the council and the GMB, Unison and Unite unions will resume early next week to try to reach a new deal on pay.
由苏格兰民族党领导的市议会曾威胁解雇数千名员工，再按新合同重新聘用他们。此前，市议会与工会就平等薪酬方案的谈判已陷入破裂。
Letters which had been due to be sent to staff informing them of the fire and rehire plans will not be issued.
此次谈判涉及市议会替换一套被认定对以女性为主的劳动者存在歧视的薪酬制度。相关调整不会影响大多数员工，或者会使其薪酬待遇有所改善，但会导致11%的员工减薪。
The SNP-led council had threatened to sack thousands of members of staff and then rehire them on new contracts after negotiations with unions over equal pay proposals broke down.
吉尔鲁思表示，苏格兰政府不支持解雇后重新聘用的做法，并曾敦促市议会和工会重返谈判桌。
The talks were about the council's plans to replace a pay system found to discriminate against mostly women workers. The changes would see the majority of staff unaffected or better off, but they would cut pay for 11% of staff.
她说：“鉴于这一情况的重要性及其对员工的影响，我希望促请各方齐聚一堂，并明确表示，我希望市议会与工会之间的谈判继续进行，以达成集体协议，终结带有歧视性的薪酬做法。

“我期望各方按照公平工作的原则行事，并继续尽一切可能寻找达成集体协议的途径。”苏格兰工会大会代表Unite、Unison和GMB工会表示：“我们乐见解雇后重新聘用的威胁已被解除，并期待下周举行实质性的谈判。”
Gilruth said the Scottish government did not support fire and rehire schemes and had urged the council and trade unions to get back around the negotiating table.
我们也欢迎苏格兰政府明确表态，称“解雇后重新雇用”的做法不符合公平工作的原则和应有做法。GMB工会组织者戴维·休姆说，市议会最初作出了错误决定，但对该议会愿意重新审议并推翻这一决定表示欢迎。
She said: "Given the significance of this situation and the impact on staff, I wanted to bring all parties together to make clear that I expect negotiations between the council and unions to continue so that a collective agreement can be reached and bring an end to discriminatory pay practices.
“经过七年艰苦谈判，我们认为新的架构已经可以提交会员讨论。现在应允许他们作出决定，而且这件事应当刻不容缓地进行，”他说。
"My expectation is that all parties act in line with the principles of fair work and continue to exhaust all avenues for collective agreement." On behalf of unions Unite, Unison and GMB, the Scottish Trades Unions Congress said: "We are pleased at the lifting of the threat of fire and rehire and that meaningful negotiations will take place next week.
格拉斯哥市议会的一名工作人员早些时候将这一局面形容为“令人心碎”。
"My expectation is that all parties act in line with the principles of fair work and continue to exhaust all avenues for collective agreement." On behalf of unions Unite, Unison and GMB, the Scottish Trades Unions Congress said: "We are pleased at the lifting of the threat of fire and rehire and that meaningful negotiations will take place next week.
来自格拉斯哥的学习支持工作人员乔安妮说，在看到市议会发布将解雇全体员工的消息后，该市议会“竟然还有脸声称关心员工”。
"My expectation is that all parties act in line with the principles of fair work and continue to exhaust all avenues for collective agreement." On behalf of unions Unite, Unison and GMB, the Scottish Trades Unions Congress said: "We are pleased at the lifting of the threat of fire and rehire and that meaningful negotiations will take place next week.
两周前，她被告知自己将成为新制度下遭遇减薪的员工之一，这让她“万分痛苦”。她每年将损失约300英镑。
"We also welcome the Scottish government's clear statement that the practice of fire and rehire' does not align with the principles and expected practice of fair work." GMB organiser David Hume said the council had initially made the wrong decision - but welcomed its willingness to review and reverse it.
她说：“我哭着离开工作岗位——真的、真的非常难过。我无法相信，在为格拉斯哥市议会服务25年后，我又一次被辜负。”她继续说：“我与社会上最脆弱的儿童一起工作。我想请格拉斯哥市议会来做一天我的工作——只要一天。
"We also welcome the Scottish government's clear statement that the practice of fire and rehire' does not align with the principles and expected practice of fair work." GMB organiser David Hume said the council had initially made the wrong decision - but welcomed its willingness to review and reverse it.
“这太不公平了，我负担不起收入减少。”在上个月的一次会议上，市议会在经过八年谈判后，同意对其薪酬和职级结构进行全面改革。
"After seven years of hard negotiations, we believe the new structure is ready to be put before our members. They should now be allowed to decide and that should be done as a matter of urgency," he said.
此前，在发现从事餐饮或清洁等工作的女性员工薪酬低于垃圾清运等男性主导领域的员工后，市议会已向1.9万名索赔者支付了超过7.7亿英镑。
One Glasgow City Council worker had earlier described the situation as "heartbreaking".
新制度将使受影响者中的63%在经济上获益，而11%的工资将减少。
Joanne, a support for learning worker from Glasgow, said the local authority "had a cheek to say they care about their employees" after she read the council's message saying it was dismissing all staff.
这是在一项岗位评估计划审查了市议会内每一个岗位后计算得出的。这导致工作人员被要求填写问卷，有些还就自身工作接受了采访。
She was told two weeks ago that she would be one of the workers facing a pay cut under the new system, leaving her "distraught". She will lose about £300 per year.
每次评估都围绕13项不同因素展开，类别包括体力投入、脑力技能、专注力和身体协调能力。
She was told two weeks ago that she would be one of the workers facing a pay cut under the new system, leaving her "distraught". She will lose about £300 per year.
岗位评估随后为委员会内的每个职位给出分数，并据此确定每项工作应归入12个薪酬等级中的哪一级。
She said: "I came away from my work crying - really, really upset. I couldn't believe that after 25 years' service to Glasgow City Council, I am getting let down yet again." She continued: "I am working with the most vulnerable children in society. I would put it to Glasgow City Council: please come and do my job for one day - one day only.
然而，这导致一些职位的薪酬被下调至低于此前的水平，预计最高降幅约为1.15万英镑。

委员会上周四表示，所有非教学岗位人员都将收到解聘通知，其中包括首席执行官苏珊娜·米勒、托儿所工作人员和垃圾清运人员。随后，他们将获邀签订新合同，合同将于1月1日生效。英国全境就业法律的相关变更也将在同一天生效。

这些变更意味着，员工若因拒绝接受合同变更而被解雇，将被自动认定为不公平解雇。
"It is so wrong, and I can't afford to lose money." At a meeting last month, the council agreed to an overhaul of its pay and grading structure after eight years of negotiations.
委员会与GMB、Unison和Unite工会之间的谈判于周三破裂，因为Unison表示不会就拟议的新薪酬方案对会员进行投票表决。
council has previously paid over £770m to 19,000 claimants after it emerged that female workers in roles such as catering or cleaning were paid less than those in male-dominated areas such as refuse collection.
委员会指责Unison因未让会员有机会投票而“背叛”会员，但该工会的教育事务协调员西尔维娅·霍伊则指责委员会采取了“恐吓手段”。
The new system would see 63% of those affected gain financially, while 11% would have their wages reduced.
她在BBC《苏格兰早餐》节目中说：“我们没有背叛任何人，更没有背叛我们的会员。我们仍在为会员据理力争。
It was calculated after a job evaluation programme looked at each role within the local authority.
“那些正在遭受巨额经济损失的会员……损失金额无论是200英镑还是1.2万英镑，我们都在为他们争取权益。
This saw staff being given questionnaires to fill out, and in some cases interviewed about their job.

Each evaluation was based around 13 different factors. Categories included physical effort, mental skills, concentration and physical co-ordination. The job evaluation then provided a score for each role within the council, with those scores used to establish which pay grade - out of a possible 12 - each job should sit in. However, this has resulted in some roles being moved onto lower salaries than they were previously on, with the highest drop in wages expected to be around £11,500. The council had said on Thursday that every member of non-teaching staff would be issued with a letter of dismissal, including chief executive Susanne Millar, nursery staff and refuse collectors. They would then be offered new contracts, set to begin on 1 January.

Changes to UK-wide employment law will come in effect on the same date.
岗位评估随后为委员会内的每个职位给出分数，并据此确定每项工作应归入12个薪酬等级中的哪一级。
These changes will make dismissing an employee for refusing to accept contract changes automatically an unfair dismissal.
然而，这导致一些职位的薪酬被下调至低于此前的水平，预计最高降幅约为1.15万英镑。
Talks between the council and the GMB, Unison and Unite unions fell apart on Wednesday when Unison said it would not ballot its members on a proposed new pay offer.
委员会上周四表示，所有非教学岗位人员都将收到解聘通知，其中包括首席执行官苏珊娜·米勒、托儿所工作人员和垃圾清运人员。随后，他们将获邀签订新合同，合同将于1月1日生效。英国全境就业法律的相关变更也将在同一天生效。
The council accused Unison of "betraying" members by not giving them the chance to vote on it, but the union's education convener Sylvia Haughey accused the council of using "bullying tactics".
这些变更意味着，员工若因拒绝接受合同变更而被解雇，将被自动认定为不公平解雇。
She told BBC Radio Scotland Breakfast "We haven't betrayed anyone, we certainly haven't betrayed our members. We are out fighting for our members.
委员会与GMB、Unison和Unite工会之间的谈判于周三破裂，因为Unison表示不会就拟议的新薪酬方案对会员进行投票表决。
"We are fighting for the members who are... losing big financial amounts, whether its £200 or £12,000.
委员会指责Unison因未让会员有机会投票而“背叛”会员，但该工会的教育事务协调员西尔维娅·霍伊则指责委员会采取了“恐吓手段”。
"We have not walked away from anything. We are willing to speak to the council at any time." Glasgow City Council’s communications director, Colin Edgar, said it was a “hellish situation” that “almost no-one” wanted to be in.

He acknowledged that staff would feel distressed and anxious, but promised that all those affected would be rehired without a break in their continuity of service.
“我们没有放弃任何诉求，随时愿意与委员会对话。”格拉斯哥市委员会传播事务总监科林·埃德加说，这是一个“地狱般的处境”，身处其中的“几乎没有人”愿意接受。
Edgar said the council did not want to be in this situation, but it was a consequence of fixing an unlawful pay scheme.
他承认，员工会感到难过和焦虑，但他承诺，所有受影响的员工都将获重新雇用，其连续服务年限不会中断。
“Whenever any council does this exercise, there are people who gain and people who lose - in our case that’s about 11% of people who will earn less,” he said.
埃德加表示，委员会并不希望陷入这样的局面，但这是纠正一项违法薪酬方案所造成的后果。
Both the GMB and Unite unions were in favour of balloting their members over the proposed pay structure, and said they had secured an extra £110m to be added into the salary structure.
“任何委员会采取这种做法，都会有人获益、有人受损——就我们而言，约有11%的人收入会减少。”他说。
Both the GMB and Unite unions were in favour of balloting their members over the proposed pay structure, and said they had secured an extra £110m to be added into the salary structure.
GMB和Unite两个工会均支持就拟议薪酬结构对会员进行投票，并表示已确保追加1.1亿英镑，纳入薪酬结构。
However, Unison said the extra funding was for "assimilation and arrears", and would not help the staff facing wage cuts.
然而，Unison表示，这笔额外资金用于“薪酬同化和欠薪补发”，无法帮助面临减薪的员工。该工会表示，即将进行的讨论必须“以增加资金为支撑”。
It said the upcoming discussions must be "underpinned by increased funding".
GMB和Unite两个工会都曾批评最初决定继续推进解雇并重新雇用员工的方案，Unite称其为“一种可耻的威胁”。
The GMB and Unite unions had both criticised the original decision to go ahead with fire and re-hire, with Unite calling it a "scandalous threat".
英国政府苏格兰事务大臣道格拉斯·亚历山大表示，已呼吁该委员会的代表“重新回到谈判桌前”，寻找更好的解决办法。
The UK government's Scottish Secretary, Douglas Alexander, said had called for the council's readers to "get back around the table" and find a better way forward.
