Just a quick one if someone could help.
Assistant dim agreed x amount of hrs for o/t.
Wage slip shows half agreed amount paid.
Where do I stand?
Can rep sort this out?

Go back to the Assistant DIM and ask him to correct the mistake. What percentage of the agreed overtime did you work. Was it less than 50% or more?
Beware of booking more overtime than you actually worked, regardless of any verbal agreement. Make sure you get it in writing or else you would have no leg to stand on if this became a conduct situation.

Who has EVER gotten a written agreement from a screw concerning the amount of overtime that they're about to do?

Just let it be known that this particular shower of shite has gyped you and they shouldn't be trusted. Unless they had a reason acceptable to you as to why the full amount wasn't paid they would be told to jog on next time they want a favour.

That's the whole point. If you can't get it in writing you don't do it, unless you need the money at normal overtime rates. Putting in claims that can be deemed as fraudulent is asking for trouble.

Correct. Manager and OPG can be conducted.
