Haven't been paid after 2 months

[livjordan]

So I've been working at the Harvester for nearly 3 months now and I have only been paid £15.88 since my first shift in the beginning of August. I'm 16 and not really sure how to go about handling this. I've worked 61 hours to this day.

I asked about it and found it it was because I haven't been signing in and out - which I was never told to do by anyone. I've asked two of my managers; one of which told me the money would be in my bank by Friday 30th and it still hasn't been sorted. I asked my other manager and she said she would get it sorted yesterday, when the head office was open again after the weekend and it still hasn't been sorted. I rang up today and found there was no manager to sort it out, so someone took a note for me. I've had to speak to three people now and I'm starting to get really annoyed. I should have been paid nearly four week ago!

I was never given a contract to sign either, is this an issue?

Thank you for your help

Re: Haven't been paid after 2 months

You need to put this in writing to them. The content of phone calls is difficult to prove.
Itemise days & hours worked.
There is no legal requirement for a written contract of employment, but you should have received a Statement of Employment Particulars if you are an employee.
