Not been paid what you're owed?

Typical situations

  • Money has been deducted from your wages without agreement.
  • You have not been paid holiday, notice or a contractual bonus.
  • Your final payslip does not add up.

Practical first steps

  • Gather payslips, your contract and any relevant policies.
  • Set out the shortfall in writing to your employer.
  • Take advice on time limits, which can run from each deduction.
