Many organisations are not paying their employees fairly. Often, this is done when employers do not pay their employees the same wages for doing the same or comparable jobs. But under UK law, people must get equal pay for doing ‘equal work’.
Equal pay claims are not always about gender. But in many cases, women are paid less than men for doing the same work. This is a breach of the Equality Act 2010.
Where a business is allegedly breaching equal pay laws, KP Law can hold them to account and help workers get the justice and money they are owed.
Specialists when it comes to making equal pay claims on behalf of our clients, we regularly take on ground-breaking cases. For example, we are currently pursuing some of the UK’s leading supermarkets for alleged breaches of equal pay law. Through these equal pay multi-claimant and group-actions, we are strengthening the position of our claimants and forcing the supermarkets to take their claims seriously.
Signing up to a KP Law action is straightforward and costs you nothing as we act on a no win, no fee basis.
