Gibson and Others v Sheffield City Council
Court of Appeal
“Merely because an employer could explain a pay disparity, which was not directly discriminatory, that did not necessarily mean that the pay practice was not tainted by sex discrimination, so that the employer would have to justify that disparity objectively in order to rely on the genuine material factor defence in an equal pay claim.”
