Equal pay compensation
Lawyers are investigating legal claims on behalf of Asda, Morrisons, Sainsbury’s and Tesco store workers who may have been underpaid as much as £30,000 each.
Supermarkets are paying their distribution centre staff more than their store staff.

If you work at an Asda, Morrisons, Sainsbury’s or Tesco store – or if you have previously worked at a store in England or Wales in the last six years – you could have an equal pay claim.

Victory for Tesco workers in equal pay dispute.
Supermarkets are paying their distribution centre staff more than their store staff. Legal experts believe these jobs are of equal value, so the supermarkets should pay these workers equally. Lawyers are helping current and former store workers to claim compensation for the money they have not received.
Lawyers are bringing claims on behalf of store workers who are currently or have previously worked at an Asda, Morrisons, Sainsbury’s or Tesco store in England or Wales at any time in the last six years. You may qualify to join the group claim if you work at one of these stores or have done so in the previous six years.
You will only have to pay anything if you win. You will not have to pay anything upfront. Any payment would come from the money the law firm recovers from the supermarkets on your behalf. They will conduct the litigation for you under a no-win, no-fee agreement.
Lawyers believe store workers could be owed thousands of pounds in compensation because they were not paid the equivalent to distribution centre workers.
No. When you claim against an employer, the law automatically protects you from any act of retaliation. They cannot treat you any differently for joining the claim.
Not at all. The process to join is straightforward and can be completed quickly from your phone or computer.
Lawyers cannot tell for sure how long the case will take, although they anticipate that the equal pay claims could take several years. The supermarkets will fight it hard, and a number of Court and/or Employment Tribunal hearings will be required.
Lawyers will provide regular updates on the claim’s progress once you have formally signed up to the case.
If you don’t join the group claim you might not receive any financial compensation. A successful claim could equal up to six years’ backpay from the date the law firm starts your claim and backpay from the date they begin until the claim is resolved. So, if you have worked at one of the supermarkets over the past six years it is worth joining the action.
If you are interested in joining the compensation claim, sign up to see if you are eligible for the claim.
Absolutely. Anyone, male, or female, who has worked at one of the stores in England or Wales in the last six years in an hourly paid job may be eligible to claim.
It is likely that the difference in pay between store and distribution centre workers is due to gender. However, while female store worker claims will lead the equal pay case, their male colleagues might also be eligible for the same level of compensation and backpay if successful. So, a male store worker can also bring a claim. To be awarded compensation, both male and female workers must make a claim.
Yes, you can continue to work for the supermarket if you join the claim. It is unlawful for them to fire you for pursuing a claim against them, or to treat you any differently.
Yes. If you are made redundant, you can still make an equal pay claim.
If you are made redundant and your employer asks you to sign documents about your redundancy or your redundancy pay, do not sign them until you have sought legal advice. Also, you must tell your legal adviser that you have issued or intend to issue an equal pay claim.
Once you have signed up to join our claim, there is nothing more you need to do. We’ll let you know if you are eligible and, if so, invite you to join an action. Please keep copies of any documentation regarding your work at the store.
If you were employed as an Asda, Morrisons, Sainsbury’s or Tesco store worker in the last six years, you may be owed thousands of pounds in equal pay compensation.
Current and former store workers may be entitled to equal pay compensation.
