Hi all,
looking for advice please. Various issues at work of late and many changes, 2 members of staff and we have gone from full-time to part time employment in the last month (22 / 28 hour week on rotation)
My employer told me casually at lunch time, not in staff meeting and not with other staff member that we will be paid monthly from now on. We have been paid weekly since day one of employment (17 years and 9 years each). My contract states I am to be paid weekly (other staff member refused to sign the contracts when they were bought in 2 years ago).
I am barely getting by on part time wages as it is (mortage, loan, childcare etc) and certainly cannot survive a month with zero income.
Is this legal?
I have asked for 2 months notice before it is bought in so I can try and borrow money / secure a loan. My employer said no, I gave you notice already (it was mentioned casually as a possibility in the future as we closed for Christmas before the break) but in no shape or form were we given notice as to its implementation.
Small private owned company, no HR, no manager, no line referral etc. Employer is the owner.
I am seriously worried about what we will live on and extremely stressed. If there is any advice or standing I can take I would appreciate it. thanks
