Hi all, I am in a horrible position and I really need some advice.
Basically I had a Mon-Fri 9-5 job. I went on maternity leave and my job was made obselete and was moved to another location where there are two other people doing the same job. I was offered a place there but I am unable to work there to a malicious ex trashing me and lying to the whole team because he is a truly evil person. That aside, my boss has refused to cut my hours and has put me into a job where I would be given completely random hours to work on a 24-7 rota, long days; basically hours that are impossible around childcare. Also doing a nursing role I never wanted to do and woukld nefer apply for.
Unfortunately, my contract is deliberately wooley and says that working needs to meet the needs of the service so the 9-5 hours I have worked for 3 years apparently mean nothing.
So essentially, I am being forced out of my job because there is no childcare at the weekends and it is just me caring for my child.
They have made sure that they have dotted the i's and crossed the t's with regaards to offering me alternative employment as I am covered by maternity laws. However, I wasof the understanding that you were supposed to be offered "Better conditions/pay or equal". In this circumstance, I feel that I am facing constructive dismissal.
Do I have any case for this? Pleae if anyone can offer any advice? I feel that I have been utterly screwed by work. I even told them I wanted to leave because my ex was inciting colleagues to send me hate mail. I stopped applying due to assurances from my boss and she said "Don't leave". I feel so stupid :(
