Unfair deductions from wages

Every employee deserves to be paid correctly and as promised by their employer. From time to time, disputes can arise and your employer may feel they have the right to deduct wages from you. However, employers can make mistakes and it may be that the deduction from your wages is actually an unlawful deduction. BRR Law has a dedicated Employment Law Department based in Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire and our specialist lawyers are experienced in dealing with all aspects of unlawful deductions.

There are many reasons why an employer might make a deduction from your wages. For example, to cover training expenses, uniform costs, property damage or sickness. But, if these deductions haven’t been formally agreed with you in advance, they could be unlawful.

If you believe your wages have been unlawfully deducted, the first step is to try and resolve the dispute with your employer. If you’ve tried this approach without success, we can help you retrieve money owed to you. This could involve making a grievance complaint, or submitting a claim to an employment tribunal. Before taking any action, we’ll clearly explain all of your options, help you plan the best solution for your own particular situation and be with you every step of the way.
