contract

Post by SJH101 »

I had recently gone onto a full time contract. I asked if I could go back to my old hours and my own duty (30) because my new role is making me unwell for a few reasons. I was told the only way I can go back is to drop to 28........which I have reluctantly accepted in my head.

The full time contract came in the post recently and I have still NOT signed it. Do I have any legal standing by having still not signed the full time contract?

Also I was told I could drop back to 28 but have since found out that can only happen if another part timer accepts full time......so we swap basically. This last part about swapping with a part timer wasn't mentioned to me in the meeting I had with the managers. I was just told I could drop to 28.

All I want to do is just have my own duty (like I had before) in the area I was in before with 28 hours. They seem to be making life really difficult for me. It really is making me ill. I have a fixed contract and have been at royal mail for 5 years.

Advice appreciated

Thanks

Is it worth speaking to HR as well?

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.
