The Council has, through this exercise implemented:

A single job evaluation scheme that analyses the jobs carried out by all employees covered by the national agreement
A single pay structure for all Single Status employees that rewards them appropriately for the jobs that they do
Harmonised and non-discriminatory terms and conditions of service
