Cheated by your employer? Get free advice!
Questioner
My question is whether my employer is cheating me terribly! Of course, this needs more explanation. I have been working for a company for 28 years now, with a full 40-hour work week. Gross per hour I get - believe it or not - only €9.79. I have NO ATV, NO senior days or in other words senior days, NO pension, and a very important one: not even a collective labor agreement. On average I get a 3% salary increase in 8 years and I can be happy if I achieve this! You can absolutely believe me when I tell you that after 28 years I know my company inside and out. This means from experience that negotiating with my employer is absolutely NOT an option. In fact: I am told where the hole of the door is. Or to put it another way: even after 28 years of loyal service, I can just fuck off, because that's what it comes down to! And in those 28 years, I haven't been sick for a month. For 28 years, new colleagues have been coming in who get more than me on their first day. Or colleagues who have been there just as long as I have and who get at least €400 more per month. I am convinced that I do my job well. Now, these days, I notice that I have sleepless nights because of it. I feel like I'm being held in a pliers that I can't get out of. Unfortunately I have hardly any diplomas, I am 51 years old. Another job is not an option because the chance of a permanent contract is zero. Because that is the only positive thing about this shitty company where I work: it still looks like I can finish the ride here or in other words I can work here until I am 65 or 67. But that is an insight of now, you do not have real certainty anywhere. Then I come back to my initial question: is my employer cheating on me or am I exaggerating and should I look at this whole incident differently? Good advice please,Lawyer
I cannot guarantee that certainty. The inflation correction is 2%. That provides a basis to guide argumentation.Neem de volgende stap
