The 4 main Employment Tribunal Claims for Unpaid
Wages and Holiday Pay

The 4 claims set out below are the bulk of our caseload. Your claim may be simple: just for the last
week’s wages. But if you can add any – or all! – of the other claims, it increases the value of the
claim and puts more pressure on the employer to settle. Further information on all these claims and
how to calculate them is set out in later sections.

  • He was owed over £2,000.
  • He never had paid holidays, he never heard of them.
  • He had no written contracts and
  • Never seen his pay records.

Things You Should think about Before Taking Your Case

If you have been underpaid, most employers will pay up – or pay something – on a simple wages claim: they are likely to offer to settle for half what is owed or perhaps pay in full.

But they are shocked by the other, associated claims, which double or treble the amount in dispute. That puts you in a much stronger position when it comes to negotiating a settlement; and it leads to much larger payouts.

That’s where we can help: by adding claims to the basic claim for wages – the multiplier effect – and
by negotiating on your behalf.

Most genuine claims will lead to at least some sort of settlement offer

Settlements

90% of Tribunal claims settle, without a hearing. Claims may settle easily: some employers pay up
when they get the claim. Some drag on.

Why Employers Settle:

There are real risks for employers if they fight the case:

  • They don’t want the publicity a formal Tribunal decision brings, with the possibility of other claims and enforcement.
  • They don’t want to incur the cost of a lawyer to defend the claim; or to spend time gathering the evidence and preparing the case.
  • And they don’t want to face questions in a court, especially when they know the wages were incorrect!

There is a downside for you:

  • Tribunal claims can drag on, taking months, over a year sometimes.
  • It takes time and effort to prepare and calculate your claim, showing how much you are owed.
  • There can be a lot of preparatory work throughout the case.
  • Meeting the Tribunal deadlines, and the hearing itself, is stressful and worrying.
  • We will advise you on the strength of your case but success can never be guaranteed.

The Biggest Factor in ensuring you win is the evidence you can collect. Start gathering it now!!!

  • Keep your own records of hours, shifts and pay, dates and times worked, pay rates and pay slips
  • Take photos of rotas and work allocation, any work documents
  • Use a diary or notebook; make a note of any arguments or abuse; any discriminatory, sexist or racist comments or practice – over work allocation, or pay, or sexual or racial harassment or insults
  • Who, what, where, when
  • Keep messages from your employer – text, WhatsApp, Facebook, email or any other communications they have shared with you
