hi everyone.Sorry I haven't been on for a while but I have a slipped disc in my neck at the mo,painful!!!Anyway,the situation at work hasn't changed any and just to add insult to injury (no [pun intended,lol!) I've been off work for two weeks now with my neck and on pay day (friday just gone(monthly)) I walked down to the bank in Accy,which was very painful but what can you do?,only to find that my wages hadn't been put in the bank!As a result of this,I rang a couple of friends from work to see if they had been paid and found out that everyone else had!
I rang the office to try and find out what happened only to be told that the accountant/director was in a meeting and he would get get back to me later.I'm still waiting for him to get back to me!!!well,I rang back on Sat. morning but the only person in the offices was the chief maintainence man who took my number to pass it on to the gaffer so he could ring me and let me know what was going on......still waiting,again!!!!The upshot of it all is that I now have no money,food,I've only just moved house and am quicvkly running out of electricity,ideas and patience!!!I'll keep you updated a bit more regularly,ok peeps but I gotta go now as my old man is knocking at the front door!!!Again,thanks to everyone who's helped so far.Speak soon . xxx

This is a truly dreadful situation to be in. Have you been to the CAB yet, and are you keeping a diary as advised? Is there anyone at work who is sympathetic and could verify what is going on? Is this a large company? If so is it not possible to go to a director or someone higher up the management ladder? Anyway, I hope it all works out for you soon.

Withholding wages is ilegal, this alone would be enough to claim constructive dismissal. Get down to CAB straight away.

On teh down side it does look like you will not be working there much longer, you may as well start looking for work.

Re: Being screwed by employer....
 

A wait of at least 3 weeks to get an appointment at CAB as mi mother found out. :(

Re: Being screwed by employer....
 

What ever you do do not say stick your job or in anyway give any impression that you are leaving of your own accord. If they sack you you'll need the notes of all you've told us, write it up and send it to adjudication, there will be enough there to get you your money. If you walk out you've made yourself voluntarily unemployed and won't get full money no matter what.

Re: Being screwed by employer....
 

If failing at CAB see a local reputable solicitor & do it on a no win no fee basis for contructive dismissal:rolleyes: & follow advice given in your favour.

Re: Being screwed by employer....
 

Hi there Northstar, can you give us an update on this situation yet?
Hope you can tell us it's all now resolved!!!
