Despite doing jobs of equal value, Asda is paying its distribution centre staff as much as £3 an hour more than its store staff.
Legally, we believe that Asda should pay these workers equally, so we are helping current and former Asda store workers to claim compensation for the money they have not received.
If you are currently working at an Asda store – or if you have previously worked at a store in England or Wales in the last six years – you may qualify to join Keller Postman UK’s equal pay claim.
Signing up is straightforward and costs you nothing as we act on a no win-no fee basis.
When people join a group action case, this strengthens their overall position and makes big organisations like Asda take the matter seriously. If you join our group action, we believe that this will increase your chances of success.
To make sure those who need it have access to justice, we are providing Asda store workers with specialist litigation lawyers – without having to pay any upfront fees.
We believe that Asda may owe many current and former store workers thousands of pounds each.
We make the process of claiming back what you are due straightforward.
It is free to sign up and takes only a few minutes.
The difference in pay between store and distribution centre workers is likely due to gender. Asda either views the work done by store workers (typically women) as lesser in value or believes it can get away with paying female staff less. Either way, this is unlawful.
Anyone who has worked at an Asda store in England or Wales (in an hourly paid job) in the last six years can register to claim with Keller Postman UK. While female store workers will lead our equal pay case, their male colleagues will also be eligible for compensation if we are successful.
To receive this compensation, you must claim. So don’t miss out!
We encourage you to sign-up quickly to get all the compensation you deserve. If you wait too long, you may not get all the compensation you are due, or your claim may be thrown out altogether.
If you are unsure if you have a claim, contact us to find out if you are eligible.
It is free to sign up, and you won’t pay anything if you don’t win. *
If you have been a store employee of any at these supermarkets (in England & Wales), you might be able to join more than one claim with Keller Postman UK:
Asda is allegedly not paying its supermarket store workers a comparable wage to employees working in its distribution centres. We believe that Asda is paying distribution centre employees as much as £3.00 an hour more than store staff. However, these employees do jobs of equal value, and Asda should pay them the same. We are helping current and former Asda store workers to claim compensation for the pay they have not received.
You might qualify to join our group claim if you currently work in an Asda store or have done in the last six years. We can only take on clients who are paid an hourly rate, and who have worked/are working in an Asda store in England or Wales.
We will work for you under a no-win, no-fee agreement. This means:
If you are successful, our fee is up to 45% of any compensation we recover for you.
Every case is different, but we believe that Asda could owe its store workers thousands of pounds in compensation each. Each claim is calculated individually on a number of factors, for example, how long you have worked for Asda, amongst others.
No. When you claim against an employer, the law automatically protects you from any act of retaliation. Asda cannot treat you any differently for joining the claim.
Not at all. The process to join our action is straightforward and can be completed quickly from your phone or computer.
We cannot say how long the case will take, although we anticipate that it could take several years. It will be hard-fought by Asda, and the case will require several Court and Employment Tribunal hearings. We will provide regular updates on the claim’s progress once you formally join the Keller Postman UK equal pay claim.
When we claim on your behalf, we will seek compensation for any unpaid amounts right up until the date we settle or win your case.
If the Court finds that Asda is not paying its store workers properly, it might insist that all workers receive equal pay in the future. But that is unlikely to cover backpay.
A successful claim could equal up to six years’ backpay from the date we start your claim and backpay from the date we begin until the claim is resolved. So, if you currently work at Asda or have done in the past six years, it is worth joining the Keller Postman UK action. If you don’t join the group claim, you might not receive any financial compensation.
If you are interested in joining the Asda compensation claim, sign up with Keller Postman UK to see if you are eligible.
Absolutely. Anyone who has worked at an Asda store in England or Wales in the last six years in an hourly paid job may be eligible to claim.
Yes, you can continue to work for Asda if you join our claim. Asda cannot fire you for pursuing a claim or treat you any differently.
Yes. If you are made redundant, you can still make an equal pay claim. We recommend that you join the claim as soon as possible to ensure you receive as much compensation as you are owed.
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 will let you know if you are eligible and, if so, invite you to formally join our action. We will then progress the claim on your behalf. Please keep copies of any documentation regarding your work at an Asda Store.
Please keep us informed if any of your contact information changes so we can stay in touch with you. You should also lookout for any emails from us, and don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions.
