Like many contract workers in third level institutions around the country my contract was not renewed when the existing contract expired.
I had worked for the institution for 3 years and 11 months on 4 continuous rolling contracts and had been given the impression from my head of department that the CID was only a formality. This did not come to pass and I was only made aware of the situation with the bare minimum of notice, has anybody experienced a similar set of circumstances and is there anything I can do?
