Employment Equality Act, 1998 Sections 7 and 19 - Employment - Equal Pay - Like Work - Prima Facie case - Grounds other than Gender

The complainant alleges that she is entitled to equal pay in terms of Section 19 of the Employment Equality Act, 1998 with the named male comparator on the basis that she performs 'like work' with the named male comparator in accordance with the provisions of Section 7(1) of the Employment Equality Act, 1998. The respondent refutes the allegation that the complainant and the named male comparator are performing 'like work' within the meaning of the Act and it states that there are grounds other than gender for the difference in pay.
