Work is changing shifts, what are my rights?
|
I'm laid off right now and I just heard from with that I will be going back but instead of my first shift they are going to put me on working Friday- Sunday 12 hour shift at night. Do I have any rights to this other than quitting my job?

You do not have to take it, but unless there is some contract to the contrary, cannot demand that you be put on a certain shift. I'd advise you to take it. Your weekdays will be free, and you can look for another job then, if you want.
As I understand it, you have not been offered the shift yet. If and when you get notice, you can politely inquire whether there is any space on teh day shift open, instead. But in the likely event that the answer is no, I'd still advise you to take the job. |

You can accept the shift you are offered, or can quit. Those are your options. |

You have the right to be thankful you are going back to work.
If you don't like it - quit. You will not get unemployment and someone who really wants to work will be more than happy to have the job you passed up. With unemployment at record highs....there are lots of people who would love to have your job on the night shift. |

There are thousand and thousands of talented, experience people on the street due to the economy…the competition for any job is extreme. …people will do anything for much less just to feed their kids……..I don’t expect it to get any better before 2012……sorry…… |
