Is anyone else being told that if they go sick during the five weeks of their Wallington rotation they will lose part or all of their rest week?

Good luck with that one, I’ve never found HR very helpful unfortunately.

Your mistake there is in assuming they are there to help you , when quite clearly they are not and are as anti the real workforce as the rest of the management rank of stooges and associated hangers on.

I have rang them before about Bank Holiday payments, and they were upfront and helpful. Maybe depends on the luck of the draw who you get to speak to

They tried that crap at our place, the upshot was that they had to pay back all the days they had taken off Wallington week duty holders for about the past 5 years, those that could remember anyway..

Gee, what's the world coming to when managers try and pull a fast one like this? Honestly, they would say anything to try and force people to come in even if they are genuinely ill.
On the face of it, shareholder value is the dumbest idea in the world.
