A £600,000 FUNDING pot will be used to support businesses and boost the economy as East Lothian recovers from the coronavirus pandemic. The money, from East Lothian Council, also aims to be a shot in the arm for the county’s tourism and hospitality sectors and its town centres. Michaela Sullivan, the council’s head of service development, welcomed the funding, saying: “It’s an important part of our essential, ongoing work to support businesses as we recover from the Covid-19 pandemic. “This support funding has been designed to meet the needs of existing industry, pave the way for new job creation and to ensure our workforce is ready with the right skills.
WOMEN working for East Lothian Council are paid on average 4.6 per cent less than men. The latest audit of equal pay within the local authority has said that the average hourly rate for male employees was £15.62 compared to £14.90 for female staff. It comes as the council has announced that its preferred candidates for four head of service vacancies created by a senior management review are all female. The average gender pay gap is revealed in the audit report, which also reveals that 72 per cent of East Lothian Council’s workers are female. However, when it comes to full-time staff, a higher proportion are men.
