Employment ….Aged 16
5 Answers
my friend’s son has started a job alongside his college hours. he was initially offered 15 hours per week in one department which fitted in with college lectures.this department is now being disbanded so he is being moved to a new department. as part of this his hours are now 10 a week for 2x evenings shifts on the weekend. Due to the change of hours, he will struggle with getting home due to parents shift pattern, he’s only 16 so doesn’t drive, doesn’t have a bike and it would be a 45 minute walk home late at night. he says he’s happy to moved into the new dept but would rather earlier hours as agreed in his initial 15 hour week contract. does he have any rights or can they make these changes? he is still in his probationary period.

He can ask to keep them hours but its there final say. They can just dismiss him if they choose. What you need to check is permitted number of hours pw for 16 your as am not sure / forgot.
