Working full time - rights?
Asked by sugar
Worked for company for bout 2 years as admin worker. been based at same workstation. I'm the only fulltime person in our office except the manager, other fulltimers changed to parttime re: family commitments. 1 having just had a baby is returning to work shortly parttime. she doesn't want to be at her workstation anymore, she wants to in her words move on to bigger & better things. She sits at reception desk & our manager has promised that as she's done it for 3 yrs now she doesn't have to do it anymore as from June. manager has asked everyone else in our office to do reception & every1 says no as they see it as too much extra work, no extra pay & demotion. Manager said to me-being full time it's likely I'll have to move to the reception desk. I said to her I feel it's unfair making me do this just cos I'm full time and we all feel it would be better shared but our manager doesn't think sharing will work. Do I have any rights to refuse this? Appreciate advice Currently we are all on exactly the same contracts and all on the same pay (except our manager) - part timers are pro-rata too. The person who is coming back from maternity is on exactly the same contract but when she applied for her position in the first place it was a reception position and she has been at reception since. I do think it is very difficult and stressful to do admin work for senior managers and run a reception desk as well. I just feel it's unfair not only to me but to everyone but it's me that's being told that as I'm full time it will probably be me that has to move.

Best Answer:
Your rights depend on what your contract of employment says. Most of them are written in very careful way so the employer has ways around most situations. I suggest you go to your local citizens advice office with your contract of employment. They will be able to tell you how you stand on the matter and how to deal with it.

I dont know. You could always make out you suffer turrets and you would end up swearing at everyone on the phone. That might get you out of the desk job

You have the right to say no just as your employer has the right to shift / change the job. if you have a contract and your job is specified then your employer cannot ask you to do this alone. In any case I would say you check your contract first, speak to a labor officer in your area and them speak to your manager about this. Hope this helps.

a change of position comes with a NEW contract, a new contract comes with NEW pay terms, they legally cannot pay you less unless they have a proper certified pay scale grading in place. Use this to your advantage, ask them for set hours and a pay rise plus tell them you want to supervise the office work at the same time to progress. They cannot tell you that you are doing it without terms and conditions in place. If they did, you must surely leave and then take them to an industrial tribunial for cinstructed dismissal
