Being made redundant this week

I thought you had gone for voluntary redundancy

 

Some of them mess with your head and hope you have found something else and just leave.
Kier have just done the same to one of the lads on site.

 

HR should give you a letter stating the redundancy terms, ask for a formal letter.

 

If you have a formal letter with stated terms showing the end date, then that is the legal termination. If they are changing their minds, then the employees would be under no obligation to stay beyond the end date. However they could ask you to stay on provided they did so on terms agreeable to you and it must be in writing and of course you could ask for more money in compensation. Stand your ground and be firm with them. Speak to the HR.

 

I think that says you will be made redundant after that meeting being held at that day and time.

They haven't given you a date yet

 

I'd agree with that. Usually after that (I assume second) consultation meeting you will normally get another letter giving end date etc. On both redundancies I have been through I had to work my notice period as well, how hard I worked during the notice period might be a different thing.

 

What was said in your meeting?

 

So you still have a job for 4 months, if I understand that correctly.

Having to work 4 weeks of it is just your normal notice period I would assume

 

Buying and selling classics can be quite an earner if you buy at a good price and get one requiring little work .
Mate of mine drives tanker artic on cement runs out of Waterhouses and Castleton ...well all of them .
Told me he gets tired more often these days particularly in the dark winters .

The shortage of HGV mechanics is turning out to be a real problem for hauliers and HGV garages .

 

Arse and elbow spring to mind.

 

Unless you have something in writing to and specifically naming you I think you will have to wait. Lucky you having to work only 4 out of 12.

 

Has he gone yet
