Hello, was told six weeks ago that two out of the 6 members of my team would be out of a job. I work part time and we’ve been told that they only want full time workers.
If we don’t get our own jobs then there are full time positions on another team which none of us would be particularly suitable for. They are currently being done by people on short term contracts so we were told that they would have to go to make way for two of us.
I’ve since contacted the union and have asked, and received,for it in writing that there are no part time positions.
Can they do this? They are being very vague about redundancy and clearly hope I’ll just leave. It’s been a long time coming as they hate part time workers and mothers especially but this process seems blatantly discriminatory and unfair. Got to wait another 2 weeks to get more information and then another week for union meeting (secret). I’m cracking up with the waiting!
