Some advice please!
Started a new post 6 months ago. Probation was set at 3 months. 3 months passed and I continued to work, by 4 months I asked my boss about having a meeting and was verbally told "of course you have passed probation" I was also told that they would love to offer me a more senior post if I could do more hours ( I work 4 days 10-4). I said not yet as children too young. Went on holiday, came back to be told that they had offered someone else the other role. Next thing I know I am told that my probation period was being extended by 6 weeks. They gave me a list of things to focus on, which I did but it was clear that they were now pushing me out. I know that the business is massively behind budget and suspect that now they have a full time person they no longer have a need for me. I have now been told that they are terminating my employment with a months pay. I am aware that employment rights don't really start for 2 years but do I have any rights having been told verbally that I had passed probation and then have it extended outside of probation?
Thanks
