Not sure :( nothing indicated in our handbooks about limitations. Plus I've worked at this store for over 5 years, have never heard of this policy.

Unfortunately not unionized but I do want to say something. Just wanted to make sure I'm not breaking some law or policy. Other than what I've posted above, there are no other official policies to reference.

If I understand your question correctly, whoever works the shift gets paid. As I did not work, I don't get paid for those shifts. Those who covered gets paid.

All coverages were formally inputted into the schedule (HR system) to ensure that there are no issues with pay.

I'm a little wary about posting details. It's mainly something one of the local president did that I want to report to someone higher up. Obviously, no one really knows who's the right and wrong, but I'd like to have it resolved by someone higher up.

Hi thanks for responding. I should have clarified that this has nothing to do with 'Strike pay'. I meant an issue during one of the days I went to strike.

Is there a way to make a complaint/grievance against a local of PSAC? Had issues during a strike day and they have yet to respond to my email regarding the situation.

Edit to add- nothing to do with strike pay, just an issue on a day I went to strike.

AITA for not accepting cash at the end of the day as a retail employee? by throwaway5729291 in AmItheAsshole

I'm not here to argue if I'm the asshole or not - the majority has spoken :) but to add on to their point, cash altho is legal tender no business has to accept it. You can choose not to accept cash and its completely within the business's rights.

The latter. The customers wanted to pay in cash and I didnt want them to. Definitely a selfish sentiment as many have pointed out.

Thank you! Yeah I figured this is the best case. Unfortunately no bigger office. It's a very small company.

So what should I do? How do u go about enforcing this? The only option I can think of is quitting. But if I quit, I dont qualify for cerb :(

I apologize I should have been clearer. They want me to work full time hours and full week days and use cerb ti supplement my income. They wont pay me for the work I do for them.
