        Well she kept her job with a guarantee of 25hours per week, they gave her 50 hours for the last 4 weeks she has had no hours and is presently covering 2 weeks for the cleaner while she is on hols plus pot wash. The union rep said if she gets any major issues then she must go back to him. Just to mention she is not in a union it is her OHs that has helped her.
        I think she is a lot braver than I cause I couldn't work with the thought I was being tried to got rid of at the first oppotunity.

          You told him that they had offered you to keep the job or a place at another 'branch' didn't you?

          I agree with the Manchester blokey that it wouldnt impress the legal dept, or a tribunal, they followed procedure at the last minute because you kicked up a fuss - they really should have got a formal compromise agreeement rather than a without prejudice payment - awww poor them. Best of luck with it Nelly, hope ACAS are positive too. Make sure you tell them everything.

            Re: Contract Query

            I did indeed tell him everything and showed him copies of all correspondence.
            The last letter was of the meeting and everything they offerd me and eventually gave me was there to see.
            My refusal to go back there was on the basis of a relationship breakdown with the new manageress.
            The other pubs that are local enough were not the kind I would like to work in and travel was a problem both time and money wise.

              Re: Contract Query

              Stick to the travel time and cost of travel arguments if you go for the tribunal Also ask ACAS if Julies case might have any bearing on yours (ie she obviously didnt find it untenable to return to work there so is reasonable to have expected you to do same etc) (thats their argument not mine btw)

                      Re: Contract Query

                      Ok Concillaition through ACAS failed, I submitted a Tribunal claim last week and have an Acknowledgement of Claim, my claim has been accepted.
                      I also have a Notice of Hearing which gives place and time but no date, I rang and the chap I spoke to said he would contact the clerk involved and another letter will be sent with the date on.
                      Two booklets with all the info on what happens next etc.
                      The respondent has 28 days from said letter to respond and any response copied to me.
                      If a response is not received in the time a default judgement may be issued.
                      A copy of this also sent to ACAS.
                      The case has been given 1 day including remedy.
                      Just a waiting game now for their reply.

                            Re: Contract Query

                            Congrats - Sounds like you got the best result out of anything possible - i think this happens a lot in brewery trade unfortunately.

                            I got sacked for "Gross Misconduct" by a new Manager over 20 years ago in what sounds like an exact same situation he let everyone go and employed his sister/friends/family

                            Took up grievance with ACAS (who unfortunately then were useless) then took it up with brewery. Eventually proved that there had been NO G.Misconduct (as there hadnt been) he had just sacked me cos he wanted sum1 else to do the job.

                            But they couldnt force the manager to re-employ me there (not that i would have) or anywhere else as it was down to individual managers re staff employment
