Questão jurídica principal
Whether the administrative law appeal was admissible and whether the Equality Act applied retroactively to the wage claim.
Decisão extraída
The appeal was admissible because the dispute concerned federal equal-pay law; the Equality Act applied because the cantonal judgment was issued after its entry into force.
Fundamentação extraída
The case raised only the discrimination aspect under federal law. Under Art. 17 GlG, wage claims are decided under the new law when the first-instance decision is rendered after its entry into force, even if the claim concerns earlier years.
