What can I do if I think I am being paid less than my male colleagues?
======================================================================

Sometimes a woman will have no more than a sense that she is being paid less than a male colleague. It can be hard to prove this where there is no pay transparency and colleagues do not share pay scales and information.

It is unlawful to pay men and women differently when they are performing like for like work or work of equal value. This includes basic pay as well as bonuses, rates for overtime, hours and benefits in kind. You will need to be able to point to a comparable colleague as part of your employment claim who you believe is being paid more than you.

Each element of a pay package can be directly compared and it is not enough for your employer to simply point to a global pay package to challenge a claim of pay discrimination.

The employment team at Vardags has a strong track record of obtaining orders from Employment Tribunals for employers to disclose pay data in order to progress claims for sex discrimination and equal pay.
