Employer has withheld all my wages!
Hi all,
Hoping someone can advise me on my current situation.
I have recently left my last employer, i was not dismissed, sacked or pushed out i simply found another job better pay etc...and left on good terms and have a recommendation and was offered my job back if my new employment did not work out
Tomorrow should be my last payment from my previous employer, my payslips are sent via email and received my payslip about 4pm. I opened my payslip and checked everything all normal deductions tax etc.. are the but then i noticed my net pay is £0.00 upon further inspection there is IT ADJ which lists my entire wage as a deduction.
My employer gave out tablets as we needed to use some software. However this was sent back in the assigned envelope when i gave my notice in and i have a copy of the tracking post office receipt.
I call the payroll department and speak to a Gary, who does inform me that i have a price of outstanding equipment. i explain i have tracking proof etc... he asks for my number and he explains he will need to speak to the IT Department and will call me back. 6pm comes and no call, i call the office and its shut.
As of tomorrow like every had working individual i have payments to make and are due tomorrow.
What i don't understand is:
1) for arguments sake lets say there was a tablet pc outstanding and market value suggest this tablet is with £300 would they not deduct that rather than my entire wage to the penny?
2) My company job was transferred to this company last year under TUPE and in my handbook it mentions deductions can be made for loss, theft misuse of equipment or company cars, its rather vague and does not stipulate there working out for such instance.
3) No contact was made to me, just a pre-paid royal mail special delivery bag for me to send equipment back.
I feel sick to the back teeth that they could do this to me, it just seems criminal at this stage. I won't be able to speak until tomorrow even then it could be a battle. The company i work for has large contracts for well known tech giants so its not a small company and could be an error.
many thanks
