I really need some help with regards to a work matter, I suppose I should start at the beginning...
Ok, so last year i had 17 days off work ranging from Jan 06 - Nov 06. I understand that this is an excessive amount, but due to personal issues the absences were unavoidable. I did apologise to my boss and have assured him this would not be an ongoing thing. However, yesterday (18/01/07) i was called into my bosses office and I was told that as a result of my un-authorised absences, my boss was to deduct 12 days worth of pay from my wage over 4 months (I’m paid monthly) and also take 5 days holiday from my annual holiday entitlement.
He gave me a letter to sign to say that i understood & agreed with what he proposed to do, I did not sign this letter as I feel that taking money from my wage for days off I had over 11 months ago is not only morally wrong but I also believe it to be unlawful, as with taking my holiday days, as I am entitled to them by law!
Any info will be a big help
