PCS responds to Esther McVey's plans to scrap civil service equality roles

Fran Heathcote says minister would be better off spending her time improving PCS members' lives

PCS general secretary Fran Heathcote said: “Time and again, evidence shows an equal and diverse workforce is a more productive workforce.

“Esther McVey is playing politics with our members’ livelihoods and well-being. She would be better spending her time, and her department’s money, on improving our members’ pay and working conditions.”
