I agreed to accept the position as JM on the interview but they change my position to a lower position in my contact and tell me it's not a problem when I request for them to change the position. After 2 week of working, they change it to a lower position and wants me to sign it. Treaten me that if I don't sign it, I'll lost my job. And now it's 4th month working here, I still didn't get my confirmation yet plus my workload is getting heavy. Kindly advice me a solution to solve this problem. Thank you.

I think getting excited and filing wage claims or contacting the labor board are a bit extreme for this circumstance. Staying in contact with the Payroll department, and stressing the import of their maintaining the responsibility of paying in a timely manner would be my first choice. The direct deposit should take effect on the second cycle (typical). \nMaybe I'm too tolerant, but I usually don't get too worked up until late checks have become the rule rather than the exception. With being new at the company, living in a hotel and all, I'm not too surprised there was a delay. Sure, it's disappointing and consternating, and certainly a concern looking forward, but hopefully the situation will go away, and congratulations on the new position and new city.

If the Union is concurring with this job offer then have them explain to you, in full, what its all about and what it entails.  Never go into anything blindly.  I'm sure your Union means well but you will be held accountable for your choice.

As mentioned above, a follow up may be good or bad, but, I would try a follow up as it show more of your interest in the position and motivation.\nTry something like this, modified to your preference.\nTo whomever;\nI enjoyed the opportunity to interview for the position of ________ and thank you for considering me. I wanted to follow up on what we discussed in the initial interview of speaking with the GM. Being a motivated person I would like to know if this will be possible in the near future, as I do want to be considered for this position, but, if I am not being considered would like to be informed as I will pursue other alternatives for employment. Thank you for your time. Sincerely Blah, Blah.

It sounds as if they can't offer you any job security or guarantees. I'd stay with the old job.

I'm posed with that same question.  I resigned last week, but my last day is June 15, 2006.  I chose this date based upon my finances.  I wanted to pay off my bills first and secure a temp. position with another company.  This will free up my employment status for paid internships and study time.  \n\nThe sooner they know the better.  This gives them time to bring in someone new and if you let them know early they may ask for your input on who should take the position and may ask you to shadow and train this individual before you leave.  You can add these skills to your resume as training and it also looks good when you go back to work that you were assigned such tasks.  It makes you look like a team player and an asset to your previous employer.

It's quite common for Occupational Health to want to see you - they asked to see me when I switched from a temporary contract to a permanent one doing the exact same job!!\n\nThey're not there to catch you out at all they just want to check that you are fit for the job, are aware of any required training (e.g. manual handling if you're going to be lifting things) and that you are aware of any support available if you do have any worries or problems in your new role. So don't worry!

If there is no explaination, reasonable enough (you ought to look at yourself and your work thru the eyes of your employer), try to get a new job.\n\nFirst of all you must have an employment contract or an understanding therein your terms of employment will be mentioned.\n\nGo through them and ensure that you honestly evaluate each of your duties and understand clearly the requirement.\n\nIn case you conclude that you have done your bit truthfully, then look into the matter of raises and rewards as per your employment policy. In case that document has clear indication of how the reward and increment will follow and you come to know that you are not due yet then stay calm and wait your turn.\n\nIf all is ok on your side and yet you feel that there is no definite answer as to why you have not received a raise while everyone else has, file redressal and get an audience with the management. Get your point across and listen to what they have to say.\n\nIf all else fails, like I mentioned in the begining, you should already have an option or two ready to fly to.

Yes, I've seen that happen before.  It's really annoying, but you figure if that's their style, do you really want to be working for them anyway?  More likely, they might offer something but refuse to put it in writing so that they can back out later.\n\nEdit: What that probably means is that you're kind of a second or third choice candidate for them, and they're still looking for the right person, but in case they don't find anyone, you're kind of the backup.  It's probably better to follow up still in case you can still get the job, but go ahead and treat it like you don't have an offer and keep searching for a job.

I don't face this type of problem. First of all you need to check what is written in your letter of appointment coz all the terms and condition etc are all written in it. Once you confirm all the details then you may decide if you are willing to carry on working for the firm.

Choose the field/job you want, and tell the others in a very cordial letter.  Thank the "also-rans" for considering you for employment, and to please remove your name from their list of prospective employees at this time.  Here's a sample letter, if you want:\n\nDear Sir:\n\nThank you for considering me for a position in your company.  I appreciate the time you took to speak with me.  However, I have decided to accept a position with another employer who has offered a salary closer to my desires.  I would certainly like to ask you to please remove my name from your list of prospective new hires at this time.  However, I hope that, in the future, I could be a candidate for a future position with your company, should the occasion arise.\n\nSincerely,\n\n_____________________

I agree with the first poster.  It may take a week or even more for them to get back to you.  I suggest following up with them one week after your interview if you have not heard back.  Be persistent, but allow them some time to come to a decision.  For example, the only way, I would wait less or longer than a week is if they told you they would come to a decision within a few days.  If so, then call after a few days.\n\nI got offered my current job one month after I interviewed in person!  So you never know how long it might take, honestly.  Just be sure to reiterate your interest until you get some type of response.\n\nI believe it would still be legal to work until 11:30pm, as far as I know.  But, you will be limited to a certain amount of hours you can work each week since you are 16.\n\nBest of luck.

CONGRATULATIONS LOU!!\n\nAfter 2 years of working with the company: if your employer did not think you were worthy and 'Deserving' of the promotion, then you would not have been given it: especially without asking for it!!  \n\nTherefore, rejoice in the fact your boss/boss's think so highly of you they wished to promote you, and no doubt give you extra responsibility, & a Higher Salary!!  \n\nNow you have to show your employer & your colleagues, that you are deserving of the position you have been given: & ESPECIALLY if in a position of authority or responsibility!!\n\nAre the people talking behind your back: or is this just a paranoid feeling you have?  You must have ‘Friends’ amongst your colleagues: try talking to them, and see what’s being said!!  If necessary, pull the ‘catty’ colleagues to one side and point out to them that you did not ask for the promotion, and that if they have a problem with it, to take it up with the boss: as you are sure he will be interested in what they have to say!!\n\nJealousy amongst colleagues in the workplace is rife in any company, for a multitude of reasons: Promotions: office politics: who Fancy's who, etc... \n\nYou must rise above it, and ignore their catty comments and childish actions!!  In NO WAY: must you give in to them, and return to your lower post: not unless the job is too much for you!!  You have worked hard no doubt to get where you are today:  you have worked for it: you have earned it: you deserve it: let no bugger deprive you of it!!\n\nStand tall & be Proud!!\n\nGood luck & God Bless!!

I would write a very apologetic letter to the head of human resources and simply state due to unforeseen personal circumstances I cannot accept this position at this time.  You don't need to state any more reason than this but you may want to add that you are moving out of the area.  Use the standard business format:\n\nDate\n\nName and Address\n\nName and Address of recipient\n\nDear Mr or Ms Soandso:\n\nI regret that.....\n\nThank you for considering me for this position and if I would like to be able to contact your company in the future.  \n\nVery Truly Yours:\n\nName

NEVER accept a job offer verbally. Always ask for the job offer in writing. Give yourself a day to think about it before deciding to accept/decline the offer.\n\nSorry you had to learn this the hard way. You have to look for another job. You didn't like this job anyway. Get a new one. Good luck!
