I signed my t/l contract 4 years ago and it is held by personel.I am asking for a copy of my contract with my signature on done from the original in front of me so I can make sure they don't amend it.also stated in my letter I require within 14 days written proposal on my job,what is happening,what job they are demoting me to and wage package.upon receiving these I will then consider the terms but if I have to will work under protest of new job and wages.£100 is alot of money to lose every week.I have been there over 12 years so surely I get 3 months notice of the change not 2 weeks like they gave me.

i am asking for my contract via letter tomorrow as they do not give us a copy.this hopefully will be done frm the original in front of me so as not to add amendments.the only people allowed to be witness are fellow workers as they will not allow any unions or reps on their property

part of the contract is we are not allowed to join a union

any advice welcome

as the only t/l for this particar post it only affects me as other t/l run the production lines not scales.i cannot afford to take redundancy and end up with no job so the only option is to take demotion and lose a serious amount of wages.how much notice do they have to give as this comes into effect from 27th january with only 2 weeks notice.

they offered me 2 choices,redundancy or going back on the scales as just a normal operator on reduced wages,can they do this?

the other t/l all run their own lines.due to restructure of shifts the scales were put in retail and a team left in the chiller to stack down.I was in charge of both teams originally.due to restructure I was asked to go into retail with the scales.after 4 months I was informed that my position was no longer needed.it was not me getting demotion it was the position.i was not aware this was temporary position and did not receive a new contract for this .i still work on the contract of t/l i signed 4 years ago.

yes there are other team leaders but the company are only demoting my position.the restructure of my job means going back on the factory line and losing over £100 per week.

I have worked for my company for 12 years.4 years ago I was promoted to team leader.4 months ago I was moved into retail from chiller doing same job.today I was given 2 weeks notice for demotion as they no longer need the post I work at,this means taking a cut in pay.I was offered redundancy if this was unacceptable to me to 'save face'.I was never given a review and have been told only my job as team leader is being demoted non of the others are.can they do this and do I have any rights as I cannot go back to the position I held before as I have been replaced.please help.
