Since then I have contacted the Manager who is the owner of this company on numerous occasions to collect monies due to me because he has agreed to pay me but all I'm getting now is the run around. March month end he called and told me to meet him at the office for my money,he never showed, he sent a text days after saying he would call and never did till Wednesday this week. He told me to meet him at the office for 10am today and again he never showed. I called him numerous times again. No answer. Please tell me what I can do?

She have working for this establishment for 4 years now and it's been trouble to get payslips and holidays. They close for Christmas and reopen right after the new year which is not the full 2 weeks. Now she got a letter today via phone that it has become necessary for the company to reduce its workforce due to the covid-19 and she will be laid off temporarily from her job without pay. I failed to mention that her salary is another issue,it it always fluctuating and when she enquire about it it's a five weeks thing and always something. Need some advice please.

I was told in the interview that probation period would be 3 months. From inception I have requested a contract outlining my terms and conditions of my job, a meeting, a payslip or job letter and to date 22/08/19 I have not received anything. Even during the interview I questioned the salary they were offering and was only given a range, namely 5k- 6k. Currently I'm unaware of my gross salary however on my bank statement I am getting 4,8oo, I'm unsure whether my NIS and Health Surcharge are being deducted and/or paid. Also the company doesn't have a company sign outside. It is of my belief however that this company has something to hide and whatever it is,is affecting me as a young law abiding citizen who is seeking employment and security in a professional establishment.<br />Due to this overbearing situation I would like to take action against them. Please inform me of how I may go about this. <br />Thanking you in advance.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579793611910834836.post-65691950513362118552019-08-16T11:32:04.349-04:002019-08-16T11:32:04.349-04:00First month full pay next two months
