Abstract

In the final article of their series dealing with the aspects of wage payments and employment in retail distribution, the authors examine the implications of the 1970 Equal Pay Act on retail distribution and, in particular, how the Government's counter‐inflation policy has affected the situation. They warn that when the full terms of the Act are implemented retail employers may find an unanticipated burden added to their wage bills. This research has been funded by the Social Science Research Council.
