I work for a contract company that contracts out to the federal government. In our handbook it states that if our center closes down full time, regular employees will still get paid. We received an email on monday saying that again.
Tuesday the center closed. Today we received a letter stating that we aren’t going to be paid for the time off, all we can do is come in and make up the time.
Are they allowed to do this? I know some of the contract companies have lost their contracts for things like this, who would be the contact to discuss all the company issues?
You’d definitely be entitled to unemployment, and if you want to take it further contact an attorney.
if i were u, i’d B printing ALL of the comp’s coorispondence regarding their promises about yer pay. THEN take it 2 a real good atty who specializes in this
