Started a new job

[johnbjohn]

I have just started a new job and my employer refuses to give me a contract, holiday pay and sick pay, could anyone out there please tell me where i stand with this and what i should do. Many thanks.

I'm quite sure that a contact of employment is required by law. Contact the Citizens Advice Bureau  -that'd be my first port of call.

If you are working regular hours and getting regular income you are legally entitled to a contract and also holiday pay.  Sick pay however, is a bonus, but your employer must allow you to claim Statutory Sick Pay.

 

Are they paying your taxes properly??
