Why is that a problem. You are paid to work until the end of your duty time. I would rather do that than work their flex time.
It's a problem because it's discrimination :no no If one worker is allowed to finish early then it should apply to all the workforce :whistle

A2B you are absolutely right. Just as flexing should be a REQUEST to all staff who are affected by an unusual occurrence, it is also right that an order to work to your contracted hours, should also be targeted at all staff so that no one is discriminated against.

Manager says no overtime...besides emailing moya what else can be done. Bullying has stepped up a notch too

Officially alert the Area rep so that he can review the situation and then be lead by his suggestions.

Unofficially, keep taking it till enough momentum has built up that you hit the cobbles.
