The concept of Equal Pay in the UK has been protected in the UK for a long time. The latest piece of legislation, the Equality Act 2010, affords the greatest protection for Equal Pay in the workplace. The legislation requires that where employees are involved in "like work" or work that is found to be of equal value in terms of the effort or skills involved, employers must give men and women exactly the same treatment including the same rate of pay.If you are an employee and you think that you are not receiving equal pay that you are entitled to, the team at Employment Law Edinburgh may be able to help you.

The Equality Act 2010 is a very comprehensive piece of UK legislation that prevents employers from engaging in discriminatory practices in the workplace. Any claim of discrimination by employers that is brought before Employment Tribunals is taken very seriously, and can result in heavy financial penalties for employers found guilty of being discriminatory.
