Over 12 months ago my husband was made supervisor ..to be reviewed in 6 months , it never was . .He has been running his department short staffed and working up to 84 hours a week during this period and has repeatedly requested his contract be updated. His working hours have been changed from 8 hour to12 hour shifts and he hasnt been given the pay rise he was promised in October.His union seem useless and he cant afford to leave.There is talk of contracting out his department and under TUPE regs you have to transfer under the same conditions as your currant contract . Is it law that they give him a new contract?

When made supervisor, he should have received a new contract/job description. Needs to speak to line manager, and above if no-one will listen. Union needs to shake up - you might have to shake them yourselves. but, basically, it is a rule of employment that he be given a new contract/job description when job changes/upgrades - cant emphasise enough the need to speak to line managers. Terrible state to be in. Hope it works out - fight the f**kers!

Contract schmontract! It's always employment "at will". He can leave. There ARE other places to work.

I don't think it's at all obvious, to the person who asks a question,
how hard it will be to answer. This is software, so simple questions
often have complicated answers and obscure questions often have simple answers ... so im not sure
