Pay Disputes
Sometimes, employers do not pay their staff correctly. In such situations, it may be necessary to raise a grievance and/or bring an employment tribunal claim to resolve matters.
For example, many employers are still not paying holiday pay correctly. Several important and well publicised court decisions in recent years have confirmed that staff should be paid holiday pay at their ‘normal’ rate of pay i.e to include things like commission and overtime payments.
Do you know if you are being paid correctly? We can help you check. It is possible to recover underpayments of holiday pay for up to two years so these claims can be valuable and worth pursuing, particularly if the same thing is happening to everyone where you work.
Another common occurrence is when employers deduct sums of money from your final pay when you leave. Employers are only allowed to do this in very limited circumstances and we can help advise you accordingly.
