After a phonecall this afternoon to find out when I am due back at work (12th April), and discussing my part time hours - I was basically told that I'd be expected to do my 16 hours in small shifts throughout the week, as well as 2 night shifts per month.
I'm a single parent now, and they know this. Before maternity leave, I was told they'd be accommodating when I came back. As it stands, I'm one of 2 original staff there since going on maternity leave, everybody else has been driven out since new management took over.
Can they do this? Can I, as a single parent with no childcare available, be forced into doing flimsy little shifts all week as well as night shifts? Are they not supposed to be, as they said they would be, accommodating at all?
Any advice would be great before I start job hunting!
