Job Agencies, eh
5 years ago I worked for a Job Agency, after having been subcontracted to them from my original employer.

I was told, on being taken on by said Agency that Statuatory Sick pay would on be paid in the event that a period of illness crossed 2 Wednesdays. I.e. if I was to go sick on Monday, I would only be eligable for Statuatory Sick Pay after 11 days off.

I became ill with Acute Pancreatitis. I was off work for about 3 weeks, and was told at each time I enquired that the required absence period had increased at each enquiry.

Stinking Rotten Bastards, they were...

I'll never be without Private Healthcare again....
