Hi
I have worked for a client for 18months and had been terminated in NOVEMBER 2016.
There was no contractual agreement for overtime or oncall in my contract. Due to managers request and to maintain my professional approach, I have accepted, worked and accumulated 28 days worth of overtime or oncall during that period. My manager offered me time in lieu. So I have booked my leaves during the christmas period of DECEMBER 2016.
I had a verbal agreement with my manager and there is no written confirmation. Subsequently the manager left in the month of AUGUST 2016 and confirmed the same to the replacement manager in an email mentioning about my overtime and time off.
Since my contract has been terminated , I have requested to pay for the over time and on call services since I could not avail my time off. Now the company has declined to make the payment for the overtime or oncall , mentioning there is no such agreement.
Can I take a legal approach. or have I lost my time and money. your suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks
MJ
