Tesco shop floor workers may have been underpaid by as much as £3 per hour over the past six years. If you’ve worked in a Tesco store, you could be entitled to claim back pay and future wage increases. We’ve been supporting Tesco claimants since 2018 and continue to work tirelessly on their behalf.

Why has this happened?

The Equal Pay Act requires employers to pay men and women equally for doing the same or equivalent work. However, Tesco shop floor workers have reportedly been paid less than their warehouse colleagues for similar roles.

This pay gap is an injustice, and we’re here to advocate for Tesco employees whose hard work and dedication deserve recognition. On a no-win, no-fee basis, we’re committed to helping you get the pay you’re entitled to. Thousands of employees have already joined the fight for fair pay—will you?

Will the claim affect your job?

It’s natural to feel concerned about how making a claim might impact your employment. However, there’s no evidence of claimants being penalised or dismissed for pursuing an equal pay claim.

Tesco has stated it will defend all claims vigorously, which means the process could take some time. However, Tesco has also promised that employees will not face any adverse treatment for bringing an equal pay claim—and, importantly, it would be unlawful for them to do so.

How can we help?

We work with experienced solicitors specialising in group claims to support shop floor workers like you. Our service is offered on a ‘no win, no fee’ basis, meaning you only pay for legal assistance if your claim is successful and after you’ve received your compensation.

We believe Tesco shop floor workers may have been underpaid and are committed to helping you recover what you’re entitled to. If you’ve worked in a Tesco store in England, Wales, or Scotland, you could claim up to six years of back pay and potentially secure fairer wages moving forward.

The equal pay claim against Tesco

The equal pay claim against Tesco is a landmark case, shining a spotlight on ongoing wage disparities in roles often held by women. This case is vital, as it could benefit thousands of Tesco employees while setting a precedent for change across various industries.

It underscores the importance of addressing pay inequalities and ensuring that all workers receive fair compensation, regardless of gender. Employers must take responsibility for creating equitable workplaces and valuing the contributions of all their employees.

Frequently asked questions

Pursuing Fair Pay for Equal Work

You have the legal right to demand equal pay for equal work. The law requires employees doing comparable work to be paid equally, and we believe Tesco has violated this by underpaying store workers for years. A successful claim could entitle you to:

  • Back pay for up to six years.
  • Increased pay for the hours worked as your claim progresses if you are still employed in a Tesco store in an hourly-paid role.

Most claims are worth over £1,000, depending on your hourly rate and length of service.

Boosting Your Future Earnings

A successful claim not only entitles you to back pay for past hours worked but could also increase your hourly pay moving forward.

Accountability

By filing a claim, you’re shining a light on pay inequalities and helping to hold employers accountable. Together, we can push for change to ensure fair pay for all workers.

Strength in Unity

Joining this collective claim aligns you with thousands of Tesco shop floor workers, all working towards fair treatment and better pay practices for the future.

You may have been underpaid by £1 to £3 per hour. Multiply this by the hours you’ve worked over the last six years to estimate your claim. Most claimants are pursuing over £5,000.

The value of your claim will depend on factors such as your hours worked, duration of employment, and the comparison role used. If you’re still employed at Tesco, we’ll also seek to increase your hourly rate for future pay.

We are not aware of any claimants being penalised or dismissed for pursuing this claim. Tesco has stated it will not subject employees to adverse treatment for bringing an equal pay claim, and it would be unlawful for them to do so.

If you believe you are being treated unfairly because of your claim, let us know immediately. Remember, thousands of others are standing with you to recover what they are owed.

Yes, you can. If women working on the shop floor succeed in securing higher pay, it would be unfair if male shop floor workers’ pay didn’t also rise. While your claim depends on the women’s claims succeeding, you can lodge your claim now alongside theirs.

You are eligible if you:

  • Currently work or have worked at Tesco, Morrisons, Asda, or Sainsbury’s in the past six years (five years in Scotland).
  • Were employed in a store-based, hourly-paid role.

The claim is offered on a no win, no fee basis. You will only pay if your claim is successful and after receiving compensation. Fees are 22.5% plus VAT, along with any disbursements. There are no upfront costs, and we cover all expenses, including court and expert fees.

Yes, you can claim if you worked for Tesco within the last six years. You can only claim for the hours worked during that time. If your employment was brief, your claim might not be large enough for us to accept, but we will let you know during the sign-up process.

Yes! If you worked at another supermarket within the last six years, you can join multiple claims. There is no limit to how many claims you can submit.

We are representing clients making claims against Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury’s, and Morrisons. Many equal pay cases have seen success so far, though none have reached final conclusions.

No, you can join the claim whether or not you are a union member.
