Fairness at work

[Jombo]

Hi

I currently job share a role where I work with another colleague.

It has come to light that my colleague was summoned to a meeting with HR and asked to sign an NDA.

HR then discussed with him the fact that our line manager (transport manager) was leaving the company and was asked if he wanted to take on the role as transport manager under a new contract.

I feel a bit aggrieved that I was a) excluded from this meeting as we share the same position so I feel that I should have been equally involved in the meeting concerning the departure of our line manager and b) that he I was not offered the same opportunity.

Where do I stand?

You need to talk to your trade union. If you are not a member you should join one. If you don't know which one speak to the regional TUC office. Otherwise speak to ACAS.

This is a forum for business owners whose advice will be based on that.

lets hope your colleague never breach the NDA ........ how did you find out

You don't stand anywhere. Unless you can show you've been discriminated against (race, religion, sex, sexuality etc) they can choose to interview who they want.

You could ask someone why you were overlooked, and what you can do to improve your chances next time around. But don't go in whining about it, ask what you can do to show your worth.

I would get the Feds involved and report that you have been offended
