So the company i work for,are going to be making some significant changes in the next few weeks with potential redundancy's and completely changing peoples working hours as they need to save up to 100 working hours a week to hit their "Target budgets".
Now, The way the are going about this is they want me and a couple of other people to not only completely change my current shift pattern from 11pm-6am to 4am-11am but also want me to take a pay cut as il be loosing 10 hours unsocial pay a week.
Now since 2010 ish I've been on a contract with them that regardless of what hours i work,im on a set rate of just under £10 an hour due to the shift that i work on because i work throughout the night so i get an unsocial allowance, where as most of the other team do not work throughout the entire night so are not on the same contract, they basically want to cut my wage down from £10 ish an hour to 8.72,Which is quite a significant drop with also loosing 10 hours unsocial pay on top too.
They are not cutting my hours, But are completely changing my shifts, less pay and expecting the same amount of work if not more if people get made redundant.
My question is, Is this actually legal them dropping my wage like this?
