I'm no longer au fait with this subject now, but this isn't right in my book. |
It's the same for all staff, it's simply written into the contract. It was written into my contract before I ever started there, staff who have been there longer were paid off (between 1 and 4000 each) to sign away their double time Sundays. That happened a few months before I started so when I was a newbie I was hearing all about their holidays
.
I get 1.5x for anything over 39 hours in a week, but that's not standard either, I've just held my ground on signing it away. They're not even offering financial incentive. Basically it was all part of the same deal as double Sundays but some quirk in the system because of when I started with the company meant I slipped through the net
. I'm one of only two staff members in the region who still have it. Makes me feel speshal
. They send me a "YOU MUST SIGN AND RETURN" letter every year or so but nothing happens when I bin it
