This area covers how employees are paid, including minimum wage compliance, pay gaps, holiday pay, and other rates of pay that affect take-home earnings. A solicitor in this field advises on unlawful deductions, back pay, and claims for underpaid wages, as well as negotiating settlements. They also help clients gather payroll records, calculate arrears, and prepare submissions for enforcement bodies and, if needed, proceedings in the Employment Tribunal.
Where a solicitor protects your position
The specific risks are irreversible wage underpayments, missing holiday pay, or penalties for non-compliance with the minimum wage. A solicitor provides guidance on deadlines, collects evidence of pay records, and advances claims for back pay or wage-related penalties, aiming to protect the client’s earnings and ensure proper calculation of all wages due.
