Wow, your employer is a heartless *******.
We've had worse from a former employer of my husband. He had to take a day off without pay for his father's funeral.

I'm more surprised anybody on a contract would bother paying subs to a union TBH
Have you lived under a stone for the last 8 years or not noticed how many employment rights have now disappeared under the Tories
Have to say I'm quite surprised that a union exists for anybody on a contract at all.

I would have thought that people without permanent employment would have even more need of a union. I'm self-employed and two clients are ignoring invoices and requests to pay. I'm going to have to take them to court, something that my union will greatly assist me with - they're invaluable when it comes to getting money out of bad payers.
In your email you didn't mention that there were complications. You also didn't mention your father or your partners grandmother, so they're not part of the equation.I’ll be unable to work today. My partner Lisa lost her brother at the start of the year to cancer, and is very distressed because her sister-in-law yesterday underwent major neck surgery.
I’m fine myself, but spent all night supporting her and don’t feel I’d be much use today, as I am exhausted. I’m going to catch up on sleep, so will not call to talk on this occasion.
As I say I'm just surprised. I contracted for more years than I care to remember. The concept of having access to a union (and collective bargaining?) was just alien to me. Tho prior to that in my last permie job I was a member of an all-powerful print union - no union membership, no job.
No, they botched the operation and she’s presently paralysed. Having lost her brother to cancer this year and her grandmother a few weeks ago, she has not taken the news well.
We can personally give you at least three examples of a union protecting us, even under contract. I'm not going into them on Nsc.
