Notice Required By Employer For Roster Review.

[Meyrick22]

My employer advised me on the 20th January that they are doing a shift alignment. I was given the new rosters and told l would have a 2nd meeting on the 7th of February when l would be required to submit 3 options for the new rosters. The new shifts would be implemented on the 1st of April. Is this the correct amount of notice. There are over 50 employees. I currently work 19 hours, on the new rosters l could either have to double my hours or half them. I do not want to increase them so l will have to half them. Are my company obligated to pay me my current pay for a period of time.

actually it looks like it
I do not do employment law - start off at your union or the CAB

but scroll down and it looks as though they have given you notice and a consultation - ACAS are also very helpful

If increasing or decreasing your hours are two of the options, what is the third one?

[Maydup]

Changing rosters and working hours p, as in time of day is one thing, but doubling or halving the number of hours is a little different. The process for changing a contract depends on the contents. Are you contracted for 19 hours or is it a zero hour contract?

The third option is likely to be redundancy.

So the options are either take full time, part time or nothing. In broad terms its a restructure and although its disappointung for you, the notice period seems appropriate.

What does your union say.....there must be more of you that need help here so get in touch with the union and discuss what can happen with them.
