I've been transferred several times. Last year, they closed the store where I worked. Now I've been working at a different branch since January. Today, March 13th, I received a letter from the head office. It states that, as agreed and discussed with me, I'm being demoted to cashier. This wasn't discussed with me; it's a matter of word-to-word.

When that responsibility is no longer available, the bonus also expires.\n This does not mean that you are not entitled to this compensation in January and February if you were the key responsible person.\n\r \nBut, regarding the job change: Were you already a cashier (plus opening and closing) or did you have another role in the store? Also, did your hourly wage decrease as well? The latter without the allowance, of course.\n\n There are also provisions in the collective labor agreement and personnel guide that state how far in advance a transfer must be announced.\n\n To ensure you receive the best advice, it's best to carefully read the collective labor agreement and other provisions first. Your employer is obligated to provide you with the collective labor agreement, and you are, of course, always entitled to review the employee handbook.\n\n You can ask a follow-up question or contact us directly if you are logged in.\n\n Success and\n\n\n","brand":"Rechtswinkel.nl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56302262911325,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.rechtswinkel.nl\/en\/products\/vragen-10445-mijn-vraagal-enige-jaren-ben-ik-werkzaam-als-sleutelverantwoordelijkemeerdere-keren","provider":"Rechtswinkel.nl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
