i started my job nine months ago. I asked for my contract of employment, they refused to give me one saying nobody else has one so why should i get one, i have been asking for one for nine months.
I have tried to find out how many holidays i am entitled to, they tell me they will have to find out for me, then never let me know. put it this way, i have used 6 days in the last nine months.
i booked 4 days off months ago, then when i got back i only got paid for two days, my boss told me to prove that the other two days weren't sick days! when i got back from the four days off, someone asked me if i was planning on going on holiday this year, my boss walked passed and said that i have used my holidays up for this year...
they then messed my wages up in a big way, i basically got a letter from my bank saying my boss was taking a weeks wage out of my account, boss denied this, bank did investigation and traced money to my boss. three months later he admits he paid me a bounced cheque, i finally got the money back last week.
my boss decided to book ten days off work, left me with no cover, i basically had to do his job as well as mine, and if i am honest i really need a break now, it wore me down, i have zero energy, so i went in today and asked my boss if i could book 4 days off at the end of september, he said no chance, there was nobody to cover me. (bear in mind i am unable to take any holidays in december at all so i would have to take the rest of my holidays in oct/nov or i will lose them).
i am never able to go to the doctors, they always say no, i have missed 2 hospital appointments, smear tests, etc, it doesn't matter what it is i cant go. the worst thing was months ago my doctor thought i had a tumur and told me i may need an operation, boss told me i couldnt go to the hospital as there was no cover.
i get my wage slip weeks aftI'm i was paid (im paid wwage slip got a wageslip from feb last week! i cant keep up with it, i have to go back months to look at bank statements to see if i got paid (it really is that bad, they have a habit of either not paying, or paying twice and leaving it for months before taking it back)
i am handing in my notice tomorrow, i just wanted to know from you, is what i described normal? am i doing the right thing? would you leave?
