Abstract

The major provisions and some implications of the British Equal Pay Act have been noted in the previous article by Robinson and Wallace. The purposes of this comment are to examine the concept of low pay, to analyse progress towards equal pay by changes to national agreements at May 1973 and to discuss the effect of such progress upon the position of low paid men.
