    Id check your contract first and then either speak to HR or someone in the union.

    OP I presume you are a working in a store for a few months/ couple of years if so Tesco dont pay sick pay to people in the store.

    However I know from experience you need to keep a close eye on your hours especially if you are doing over time as they will generally try and short change you!

    Do you clock in and out?
    You can request a printout of your hours for the week and check whether you're being paid correctly.
    As with any hourly paid job you should keep a note of your times youself anyway, these systems are far from foolproof.

    As for sick pay, I don't know Tesco's policy but they are under no legal obligation to pay you when you're off sick. You need to get a welfare cert and claim for the time you were off.

    Go to the union rep and ask him/her to speak to the manager on your behalf..

    The union didn't seem that interested so its probably not in your contract and it would be down to your mangers descresion if you get paid or not. If he has said no, forget and move on or find another job.

    personal manager say me i bring medical certificate too late


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,495 ✭✭✭Oafley Jones


    I worked in Dunnes for 5 years - part time flexi but still worked 36 hours - and never received any sickpay. Medical Certs were still required for absences over two days but only full time employees would be paid for those days. I'm pretty sure Tesco had the same policy.

    in tesco store u have first 3 days with out pay but rest days of your sick time will be pay for 100%

    Bold and red text is not going to get your point across anymore than normal text..

    If you feel your union rep is not doing enough for your case then raise it to the union itself.. Cant remember who it is maybe Mandate or SIPTU.. Thinking more towards Mandate..

    Contact them and say your shop representative is not helping...

    From my experience working in Tesco i know the trouble with wages.. Even though we clocked in the hours were still wrong..coupled with the fact we didnt even have a proper personnel manager!!
