Frequently Asked Questions
The ASDA equal pay claim relates to allegations that predominantly female store workers have been paid less than predominantly male warehouse and distribution centre workers for work of equal value. Under UK equal pay law, workers performing work of equal value should receive equal pay regardless of gender. Thousands of current and former ASDA employees have brought claims seeking back-pay for the difference in wages.
This calculator is designed for current and former ASDA store workers in the UK who believe they may have been underpaid compared to warehouse and distribution workers. If you worked in an ASDA store and were paid at a lower hourly rate than warehouse staff performing work of equal value, you may be eligible to make a claim.
No. This calculator provides an illustrative estimate only and is not legal advice. Every individual's circumstances are different, and actual claim values depend on many factors including employment history, pay rates, hours worked, and legal developments. You should always consult with a qualified employment law solicitor to discuss your specific situation and understand your rights.
UK equal pay law sets time limits on how far back you can claim. In England, Wales and Northern Ireland, claims can generally go back up to 6 years. In Scotland, the time limit is generally 5 years. These are legal limitations set by statute, which is why the calculator caps the eligible period at these limits depending on your region.
This calculator provides a simplified estimate based on the information you provide. Actual claim values can vary significantly depending on factors such as: changes in pay rates over time, actual hours worked (which may vary), holiday pay, shift premiums, pension contributions, and other employment benefits. The interest calculation is illustrative only. For an accurate assessment of your potential claim, please consult with an employment law specialist.
