Thousands of Workers at UK Retailer Next Win Landmark Equal Pay Case
Over 3,500 employees of UK retailer Next have won a landmark equal pay case, with an Employment Tribunal ruling that the company unjustifiably paid its female sales staff less than male warehouse workers. The decision, entitling workers to over £30 million in back pay, is a major victory for equal pay advocates and could influence similar cases across other major UK retailers.
