Hi I work 5 days a week Sunday off and a rotational day off.
I have Saturday off this week so Monday next week which I have plans for. I have now seen the rota today to find I haven't even been given a day off next week.
I plan things well in advance due to my rotational day off. This isn't the first time my day off has been changed and to be honest I've had enough now. I am given very little notice and cannot change my plans for Monday on such short notice.
Is my manager allowed to just change my day off at such short notice? Other times I've accepted it but I can't change a weekend away
Are they also allowed to put you down to work 6 days instead of the 5 you're contracted to do?
TIA

Re: Day off issues
Have they increased your hours or same hours over an extra day?

No idea it was just on the rota the manager wasn't even there to ask. I assume its an increase in hours

Re: Day off issues
If your contract states 5 days with Sunday's off then that's that.
Your rotational day off depends on if you have a permanent duty or cover different walks.
If you cover different walks the person who plans the weekly duties should try their best to keep you on a rotational day off but sometimes may not be possible.(That my take on it and how they operated it many years ago)
There's is obviously a mistake or may just be trying their luck ,See a manager as soon as possible.

Re: Day off issues
Also you might have a nice manager who is trying to help you earn a bit more on a strike week? Does happen. Would expect it would be quite easy to swap if they don't complicate things.
