GMB union have today slammed DHL life sciences after a pay blunder saw workers at the logistics giant receiving below minimum wage payments for the month of April.
Workers at the employer do essential work transporting lifesaving medicines around the U.K.
The UK minimum wage for those aged over 23 is currently £10.42, the pay blunder on the part of the company saw workers receiving below this.
Ian Edwards, GMB Organiser, said:
"Our union won't accept anything that sees our members out of pocket.
"Blunder or not, this is a serious breach of the rules and an insult to the DHL workers that do such important work.
"We've raised this urgently with the employer and our members are discussing the next steps.
"DHL life sciences must urgently outline how they intend to right this wrong and get money back into the pockets of GMB members."
