If you have not already done so I would ask him to query with wages why you have not been paid for the 1day and 3 hours that you worked last week. That way you are not being confrontational. Wait for his response. If he is unwilling to help or states that he has put a stop on your wages, then tell him that if he does not get this sorted immediately you will issue a 14 day notice for employment tribunal and also submit a claim to the Small Claims Court for illegal withdrawal of pay for time worked. You will also be notifying the Chief Executive of your intentions.

I was under the impression that you were allowed ONE paid emergency a year. Special Leave (Paid) seems to only be paid if someone you know in your immediate family is dead.

I really do not know why they do not rename it, rarely is time off for emergency's paid for anything else.

That needs correcting straight away. Dependence leave is not the same as plain 'absence'.

Yes, I am aware you are allowed time off for that. :cool
I am suggesting you should have been paid if it was a one off.
Your DIM is certainly a twat.

These f***ing screws need to be taken down a peg or two!

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
