Female Saudi teachers to sue for equal pay

6:01 am on 10 December 2009

Female teachers in Saudi Arabia campaigning for equal pay with their male counterparts say they will file a case against the Ministry of Education to try to further their demands.

Both male and female teachers in the kingdom have been pressing for better pay and conditions for the past two years.

A spokesperson for female teachers says the campaign has improved conditions for men, but not for them.
