You should receive your contract before you start work, but may not - no clearer answer than that I'm afraid.

You should be paid on the Friday at the end of your first week. If your Induction Day lasts longer than your contracted hours you will need to claim overtime, and that should come through on the Friday of the following week. Pay day is the Friday of the week you are working.

I've been with RM for just over four years and I find out far more this way than I ever do in the office.

Thank you for letting me know, fingers crossed the contract arrives soon.

Yes this forum is so good and gives a great insight to things in the RM :)
