Join the Morrisons Equal Pay Claim
We are working to hold Morrisons accountable for potentially paying store employees less per hour than their warehouse counterparts. We firmly believe that equal pay for equal work is essential. If you share this belief, it’s time to act and reclaim the wages you deserve.
Join the claim
We act for Morrisons employees who worked or work in Morrisons stores throughout England, Wales and Scotland.
What caused this to happen?
The Equal Pay Act requires that both male and female employees receive the same pay for doing the same job. However, we suspect Morrisons has been underpaying store staff compared to their warehouse workers.
We view this as unfair. That’s why we are advocating for all Morrisons employees whose efforts and commitment have been disregarded by their employers – and we’re doing so on a no-win no-fee basis. Many have already joined our cause, pushing to obtain just compensation.
Will your current job remain safe?
You might worry about the impact a claim could have on your present employment. At this time, no claimants have faced penalties or had their contracts terminated for submitting a claim.
It would be unlawful for Morrisons to discriminate against you for filing an equal pay claim.

FAQs – learn more about the Morrisons Equal Pay Claim
Fighting for fair compensation
You have the right to request equal pay. The law requires that employees receive equal pay for work of equal value, and we believe Morrisons has broken this law by underpaying you for years. A successful claim could entitle you to:
- Up to 6 years of back pay.
- Additional pay for the hours you work while your claim progresses.
Most claims will be worth over £1,000, though the value will depend on your hourly rate and length of service.
Potential to increase your future earnings
If your claim is successful, you won’t just be entitled to back pay for past hours worked. You may also receive a higher hourly rate for future work.
Holding Morrisons accountable
We believe Morrisons has been paying different wages for the same work, sometimes favouring men over women. By filing a claim, you’ll help bring attention to the crucial issue of equal pay.
Power in numbers
Joining the claim means you’ll be part of a collective effort with thousands of Morrisons shop floor workers, striving to change employers’ attitudes and ensure fair pay in the future.
You might have been underpaid by £1 to £3 per hour. Multiplying this by the hours worked over the last 6 years can give you an estimate of your claim’s worth. Most claimants are seeking more than £5,000.
The value of your claim depends on various factors, including hours worked, duration of employment, and the appropriate distribution role for comparison.
If you're still employed at Morrisons, we will also seek to increase your hourly rate and future pay.
To the best of our knowledge, no staff members have faced disciplinary actions or termination for participating in the Equal Pay Claim. It's unlawful for your employer to discriminate against you for filing this claim.
If you believe you're being treated unfairly due to your claim, reach out to us right away. We know that filing a claim can be intimidating, but tens of thousands of individuals are already stepping up to recover lost wages, so you're not alone in this.
Yes. Your claim will be based on the idea that if women doing store work succeed in their claim for higher pay, it would be unfair if male store workers’ pay did not also rise. Although your claim depends on female claimants winning theirs, you can lodge your claim now alongside the women’s claims.
