can your employer make you work overtime and tell you, you are not getting paid for it? and threaten you with job loss if you don't do it. ? even if its a crucial time for the company.

Depends on what it says in your contract.

I'd ask for a meeting with them to discuss it and record the conversation on your phone. Then you have evidence if they try to pressure you into something that isn't in your contract

In a word no, but how you handle it depends on whether you are salaried or hourly paid and what you get paid. Alot of bosses seem to think if you are salaried, then you work whatever they think isrequired, but that is not the case.

It also depends on the wording of your contract. But your contract has to be within current legislation.

This may help a little,

Then legally they should be paid the minimum wage at least for extra hours.

The best thing is to visit a local citizens advice. You get 30 minutes free I think.

In any business there are quiet times and busy times, its not a boss verses the staff, for a business to survive its about everyone pulling together, as soon as you start asking questions about whats fair and what isn't, you may as well move on. money, jobs, orders and customers are hard to get, when the work is there it needs to be done, and you cant expect extra, you have to get off your arse and do it, and when the work is quiet and your boss, is struggling to avoid bancrupcy, and paying your wages from bank loans, you can then have some time off in lieu, without a team effort, there wont be a job, so like everything in your life, its your choice

And, if there's a REALLY quiet spell, why not bend over and let him fuck you up the arse?

Why do you assume the boss/manager is a he?

I work overtime everyday by at least 2 hours, but I want the job finished, and done well so I don't mind, just depends on the individual

Quite right - could be a female boss, with a strap-on.

It's written into our contracts that we may have to do compulsory overtime from time to time! But double pay makes it worthwhile

Unless it is written into your contract.... No...

Legally it is bullying which may be covered under "Dignity at Work"

Or... It may lead to "Constructive Dismissal"

All of which is all very well, if you are not likely to stay with the company.... Right either of these, without a decent union/ HR behind you and your position "could" become untenable....

Everyone does an occasional hour, but some bosses take the proverbial....

Some havent noticed that, in some sectors, the opportunities are getting better...

Please bear in mind two things :

1. "Contractual" doesnt have to be a written term, a verbal contract is also valid.s valid.

2. There are now substantial fees to pay to take a claim to a Tribunal.
