Yes they can. Then offer to re-hire you the next day on minimum wage. Enough people would be desperate enough to go back, great way to commit suicide.rmdriver wrote:they can't sack everyone if we stand united.

Sorry no, they can do just that. If you walk out unofficially, you walk out on your contract.rmdriver wrote:opgpat wrote:Yes they can. Then offer to re-hire you the next day on minimum wage.

Tell you what. organise a meeting t the weekend and see how many turn up. My guess is it will be two at most. Get real, this is done and dusted. 
Don't believe everything you're told in the rest room

Fact is they can sack you after 24hrs of unofficial IA. They can then rehire you on diff contract if they so wish. If you are to do the same job I believe EU has ruled you must be paid the same but you would prob be offered PT and RM would find some way to say the job was diff so they could get away with giving you lower wages - or just make you temp.

Re: Potential un official.....
This 'must be a manager' stuff really is quite tiresome. To be honest opgpat has come out with some of the most sensible posts out of the lot of us.

Re: Potential un official.....
He's right . As from today you effectively have no union and no rights .Your contract of employment will be shredded ,your hours will be at management discretion ,your pay will be legal minimum, god help you on attendance and conduct,etc,etc,..
