  1. I guess they'll be getting told I can't work. I was rather frightened of moving on as when I suggested just leaving my assistant manager said if I broke the contract I would e liable for loss of profits but I'm guessing thats pretty much impossible on a zero hour contract, never mind not being worth the effort!
  2. Cheers for the replys, it's cleared it up a bit for me. Looking through the contract there is a four week notice period. It also states that employment is on an as and when engagement and there may be periods where no hours can be offered "this contract is classed as being part time casual. Your manager will agree hours to be worked on an ongoing basis. The company does not vomit to provide you with regular work and review the situatio depending workload. It is therefore a condition of this offer that you understand that where the company finds it cannot provide work for you over a period of three months it reserves the right to conclude the contract"
  3. Hi all, looking for some advice and hopefully some of you lovely people can help me Ive been working for a retailer for nearly 5 months on a zero hour contract and it has been my sole job, during the interview it was broadly aggreed that I would be on 20+ a week and I have been so, fluctuating between the mid 20s and 40. I have now been offered a new job that offers me everything that my current does not and the sooner I can take it up the better for my new boss and his company, as a contract has been won and needs fulfilled. Obviously I'm eager to take the new role but don't want to leave myself open. I mentioned the offer to my manager, and he informed me theres a four week notice period, my question is can I just tell him I'm now unavailible to work due to the zero hour contract not guarnateeing my availibilty to work, or will the regularity of work/agreement leave me liable possible for loss of earnings? I have only taken 5 days holiday so far and was also wondering if I were to leave whether I would have these paid to me. It would be preferable for me to finish on holidays meaning I could move to the new job sooner, however I can't see this being agreed to by the managers as two of our permanent staff are also leaving to new jobs I don't want to leave on bad terms as I get on with all the staff and managers however the quicker I can make the move the better. Any help would be very much appreciated, cheers bintin
