  • proposal 2 change 35 to 25 hours

    hi ever one !

    my company has proposed to reduce my hours from 35 to 25. the reason is to reduce wastage.
    i have worked for the company 9+ years.
    we are 4 full time staff and 7 part time staff. when i started work at this company, we were 3 full time and 1 part time staff. our duties were receptionist, meet and greet.
    The company employs now 4+7 =11 staff in total doing the above job. We all working for the same company and branch, at BMW
    the manager has proposed for me and other 1 person called janet to reduce our 35 hrs to 25 each. the other 2 full timer, no changes.
    when i asked y , he said that joo is works in different dept so it does not effect her, and for elli he said she has worked 11+ years , so it does not effect her.

    change in terms and conditions of employment:

    my question?
    (1) does the manager has write to reduce my hours on the ground of “reduce wastage” ?
    (2) there is no other clause on my contract, that will allow him to do that, apart from the above.
    (3) he has not reduced any hours for the other 2 full times , doing same job i do. Can the manager do that??
    (3b) the girl who has done 11+years service , there is no change, so Y is it, there is a change on me, when I have done 9+ years service. ?
    (3c) The 2 part timers been there less that 2year, just reduced 5 hours a week each. Could he not sack them. The mistake the manager has done is that he has employed 1 too many part timer’s.
    (4) and also reduce 5 hours each for 2 part timer and increase 2.5 hours for 3rd part timers after the second meeting with him. No such a change to me considering I am going to loss 29% of my income. Can he do that ???
    (5) is the manager write to say that joo doing the same job does 45+ hours, does not be considered to reduction in hours as she works in the different department. Even though we mend her desk during lunch hour.
    (6) Before the changes about a year a go, we all receptionist use to do rotas on job describe in (5). Is it possible to bring this argument at a tribunal?
    (7) out of 200 staff at my branch, he is saving between 20 and 22.5 hours. He could have done cuts on “over lay” all staff, were feasible to part time and save the company hours, is it not possible to also bring this argument to a tribunal

    do i legally stand any chance of winning if i take the company to industrial tribunal.

    any help will be appreciated.
