DP reckons I have done the right thing.
Long story I will try and keep it brief.
I have worked at the same company for 7 years. I had a baby 20 months ago and returned to work after AML November last year.
The company I work for paid a premium rate for sundays and Bank Holidays. In march they told everyone that the premium pay was being removed we were given a monetary compensation package and they needed the majority of the workforce to accept this offer otherwise they'd go back for a 90 day consultation. (read into that what you will. ) We all had an idea that the 90 day thing would come back with the removal of premium pay anyway and no monetary compensation package.
The offe rwas a 'one off offer never to be repeated' . people at work signed the offer thinking they are going to remove the premium pay anyway so I might as well get something out of it.
The majority of the workforce (80% I think )accepted the offer. This meant thay took the money and are now working for flat rate on Sundays and Bank Holidays.
I was one of the few that didn't accept the offer leaving me on premium pay still.
I returned to work on a flexi working time agreement I put it in writing done it all properly.
I have to fufill 20 hours a week. My DP works shifts nd I have to work around his shifts as there's no way I'd want to sign up for childcare nurseries etc anyway.
This coming bank holiday I have made myself available to work. As the same for the previous 2 bank holidays. I have been told no way will I be rota'd in and I was to make up my hours from leiu I have stored. She wants the 'cheaper staff'. I have done this the past 2 bank holidays and am not prepared to use more of my leiu for the next bank holiday to make up the shortfall.
Should I have let it be and used up leiu or should I make a stand and tell her I won't be penalised for not taking the offer. I am making myself available to work and she won't let me.
I have to ring her tomorrow for the answer. I told he I thought I was being punished for not accepting the offer and she wasn't being fair.
What shall I do.
