Hi,
Looking for a bit of advice! I've been at my current workplace for around 4 months. When I accepted the role, my contract stated my notice period was 1 week, moving to 3 months after the successful completion of my probationary period (stated as 3 months in my contract).
As I reached 3 months of employment, I queried with HR what the next steps were in terms of my probation, and whether I needed to have a formal review. They were surprised at my question, and replied to my email to say that, actually, my contract should have stated a 6 month probationary period.
I don't have an updated copy of my contract outlining this change, but my question is - does this mean I'm legally in my rights to only work 1 week's notice if I were to hand my notice in? I've had no formal review, and as HR stated, my contract was incorrect.
When taking the role, I negotiated a payrise after passing my probation, which I haven't received.
I'm deeply unhappy in the role and am looking for other employment so just wanted to understand where I stood. I will query this with HR but thought I'd ask the folk of Mumsnet what they thought.
Thank you in advance.
