The company I've worked for for 8 years were taken over about 6 months ago. Some people have been put at risk of redundancies, which we obviously knew would happen - but nobody from my department, as yet.
A year ago, I got an internal promotion, and was really excited about the new role... but over the last few months it's really turned to shit, and I've started to get the dread when I go in in the morning, which is something that I can't handle at all.
So I had a one to one with my manager today, regarding new contract etc for the new company - and my job title has changed. It's not what I do, and it's not what is on my email signature.
When my new contract comes through, I think it's going to say something along the lines of helping out in the department that's mentioned in my new title, when needed.... and I don't want to. I used to work in the department that's mentioned in my new job title, but it was a long time ago, and I really don't want to take several steps backwards. I hate the idea of coming in every morning and not knowing where I'll be working that day.
Is this legal? If I refuse to sign the contract, if it says what I think it will, where do I stand? One of my colleagues has said that if I refuse to sign, I will be put at risk of redunancy.
I'm sorry for the vagueness - I just understandably don't want to be outed. And I'm also sorry to put this in AIBU 
I just need some broad opinions.
