I wondered if anyone could help me with this please. I am due to return to work in the new year & have been into work to discuss my working hours.
Before I went on mat leave I was made aware that my current position was up for review & that they wanted 1 person to work in my area or a job share to make up full time hours.
They refused to review the position whilst I was pregnant & whilst I was on mat leave.
The person who has been covering my mat leave is full time & has made it clear that she will go for the interview for the post.
When I saw my manager she confirmed that 1 person would get the job & as there are no other senior qualified persons, a job share now looks unlikely.
I can only return to work 3 days a week at present and was told that there are no other senior posts available or likely to become available.
I was told about a part time job which could accomodate my 3 days a week which would suit me, but it is a drop in salary & seniority. I would also have to apply for the job along with everyone else who may like it.
Does anyone know:
Am I entitled to protected pay for any length of time at my current salary?
Can I not just be offered this job as it is a position that needs to be filled?
If I don't get this job where do I stand?
The other jobs which I have then been offered are shift work which would be very difficult for me to do at the moment (due to childcare issues) and still I would take a drop in salary & seniority.
I feel that I am being pushed out, & am confused where I stand. If anyone could help me I would be very grateful.
