Do I Have Any Right To A Consistent Start Time?

Post by Syze »

Have you tried speaking to your lino about this? Next person to speak to would be your union rep see if they can help. I know in my contract it says i work x amount of hours a week and not at specific times. but during a different issue my rep and DOM agreed that there should be normal working times/days and then decent notice if they want you to work different hours. Seems to be a grey area but thats the agreement i got!
