Can anyone help my friend? She works in the NHS as a bank healthcare assistant. She completed her timesheet at the end of March (her last shift was on a Saturday, the nurse bank is closed on a Saturday).
Nurse bank told her to slip her timesheet under the post room door on the Saturday, in order for it to be in on time.
Her timesheet has gone missing. She has been told to submit a new timesheet, but it will not be actioned on until later this month, so she will get no pay at the end of March.
Can they do this? They have no policy about where to put timesheets outside of office hours. They told her to put her timesheet under the post office door.
My friend is a student nurse, but works as a healthcare assistant in her spare time. She really needs the money. Also, they have told her if she demands a cheque, it will be counted as an advancement, and they will make her pay £50 to do it. That does not seem fair.
