A Quick Summary Related To » Ask Employment Law Questions
Anyone with employment law knowledge please....?
I have asked a similar question yesterday but now have all the facts from my friend.
"I worked for a small company in A/C Engineering which was taken over 2 years ago. At the time of the takeover our employment contracts were honoured fully under an employment protection act. I believe this was a TUPE Agreement.
My employer now 2 years later has told us our present contract has now expired under TUPE and we need to sign new contracts.
My original contract is a permanent contract.
The new contract we have been issued reduces holiday from 25 days to 20 days, reduce sick pay from 6months full pay to 10 days SSP only, reduces overtime to basic rate of pay.
Do i have to agree to this kind of contract change?"
We would be very grateful for any advice offered .
ps Not in a union
If your old contract says that it is a permanent contract then you need to get a group of you together and consult a litigation attorney. But, even at that companies can change there policies....But, if it was supposed to be permanent you can fight it and win. If they agreed onit before taking the company over they have to stand by it. good luck
