But that's still irrelevant, Sycamore, still the good lady has been on a contract term (8 years worth of custom- and- practice) that says she's paid at the end of each week.

You have the right to ask why they are making the change or if they can make any sort of loan/advance to tide you over the missing week. It's inconvenient I know but at least it's better than having to wait a month for your first pay cheque.
They aren't really taking a week's wages off you- just deferring the payment.

Sounds like a sure way to hack-off loyal employees to me.
Historically there could be two reasons why employers used to do it (that I can think of):
1) Cashflow - employees are essentially subsidising an employer's cashflow.
2) Employees clearing off giving zero notice.
Neither of these are relevant in the 21st Century, so why not go back to the employer allow the lines of 'look I've been working here for 8 years - why the perceived need to want to change my contract to my disadvantage now? It can't be because you think I might do a runner after 8 years and give you no notice'. See what comes back.

A 'week in hand' is an old fashioned term. A week in arrears is now what a lot of companies of pay.
A 'week in hand' meant that you got your first weeks pay when you left that employment even if it was 20 years later.
A week in arrears is always getting paid 1 week behind. So you only have to work 2 weeks at the most for your 1st wage payment.

Smells like bull to me
