A Simple Internet Synopsis Of » Employment Law Acts
If I have a contract for 24hrs/wk work, does the employer have to pay 24hrs even if they dont offer it?
I have a contract with a supermarket for 24 hours work a week, but they have often rostered me for less than this and basically told me its hard luck. Dont they have to pay/offer at least 24 hours or pay the missing hours not offered? Im leaving them today and they wont budge on it. Can anyone please refer me to the relevance Act/passage in employment law that may support this as I cant see it in the 1996 Employment Act.
If you read your contract or handbook ther will probably be a section where it says that hours will be offered according to availability and that the company will not be liable if there are not enough hours available. If it doesn't have anything similar you're still not in luck, you have very little chance of ever being able to claim any kind of compensation.
