For the last couple of nights at work, myself and a colleague have had to leave early due to another member of staff not coming to work. We must have atleast 3 members of staff to stay in the store and with one on holiday and this other not coming in, it has left us with just 2.
The manager seems to think that we should make up the hours for the time that we couldnt work. Everyone else seems to agree with my colleague and I, that its not our fault that the manager didnt provide cover for the shift, and that we shouldnt have to come in earlier because they didnt provide cover for the shift.
Anyone able to give me a legal stand point on this? or have any experience with similar problems?
