Voices From The Workplace

The TUC has produced a series of films about the fight for equal pay. They include oral history interviews with women and union representatives involved in some of the major equal pay cases since 1968. The films were made by two well-known film directors, Sarah Boston and Jenny Morgan, and jointly funded by the TUC, the Wainwright Trust and the European Social Fund.

The short film Winning Equal Pay is a trailer to the other films in the series. No More Peanuts : winning equal pay (1968-2000) is an edited montage of clips from five of the main films.

Both the short and long versions of all the films shown on the website, plus a longer film on the history of the fight for equal pay - The Equal Pay Story : scenes from a turbulent history - are available on DVD from the TUC Publications Department.
