Wages

I work for the most unprofessional company I have ever encountered, I’ve worked there for 9 years, they’ve been my employer for 2 and a half.

They have recently sold the company (apparently) to their son in law, who is keeping them on in a management role.

Yesterday was pay day and wages were not paid in (not unusual for them) so contacted owner/manager as I always would to ask what was happening to be told it was nothing to do with her any longer and I will be getting an email of new employers. I asked for new employer email address so I could contact if I didn’t receive which I was sent this morning.

Used the email address to ask why my wages haven’t been sent, to be replied with that they will now be paid in on the 5th of each month.

I know they can’t do this without my consent, the tone and disregard in the email has really got my back up, I want to respond telling them I’m unhappy with new arrangements but don’t know how without really losing my rag.

I am part of a Union, should I use them for this?

Any help compiling an email would really be appreciated, thanks.

I'd be looking for another job, tbh. Sounds like they don't care, won't care, won't comply with what they're supposed to do and will just give you increasing amounts of hassle.

You’re absolutely right about that, I know it too.

It’s so hard, I’ve put off looking for jobs elsewhere because the hours suit (around childcare etc) but I know I need to go. It’s such a shame though because I love and am good at my job.

How dreadful. Yes I would contact the Union
