Scotland unpaid wages: what should I do first?

Start by checking your payslip, contract, timesheets and bank records, then raise the missing pay with your employer in writing. If it is not resolved, the next route can depend on the type of claim and whether you are still employed. Acas warns that employment tribunal time limits can be short, so do not delay while trying to resolve it informally. Official source: Acas. Guide: https://getinstantlaw.com/uk/scotland/unpaid-wages
