It’s fine. I already had. Akon interview last week and got the job for substitute hours in a city close by.
The thing is, that organisation is in the same situation as the one I’m in. They have people employed, who want more hours but they aren’t allowed to give them, because of the union. So their people have to find work in my city, some even where I work, and I have to find extra work there… it’s just innefective and a waste, it seems like
I am new in this. Been at it for just over a year and only just got a full time, no end contract in February so I don’t feel like I can press too hard. I feel like I pressed pretty hard to get the contract so I’ll let it rest for now.
The EU ion actually told me that any wage negotiation needs to go through the representative at the organization but they feel like I could be eligible for a higher pay even though I am not officially (don’t have enough experience on the field but I am good at it, have had no sick days and have multiple years experience from a similar job that uses a different union so it does not officially count as experience)
I feel like the union has been a bit limiting for my situation although know they are there to protect me. It’s just not very flexible and maybe built around fairly rigid and predefined stereotypical employee lifestyles
In my field of work, and in my country, the wages are set. At least it’s an agreement between the employer and th union. I can’t bargain or press for higher wages. My wage is predefined and will go up according to a preset because of the union
I have 37 hours a week. This is the maximum hours they allow.
I am happy for my job and I’d rather do more of something that makes me happy than have to look for an extra job in a different place. Let alone have to go to a different place of work when I could as well take more hours where I am. They do need extra employees but have to hire substitutes to cover the work
Same I. Denmark. That said it’s very common for the employee to ask about it, because it’s vital information when it comes to working conditions (both good and bad). It can be quite limiting some times.
My boss is maybe happier for union than me.
I want to work more hours but they won’t let me because of the agreement with the union.
I live in Denmark 🤘
What I like with DDG is that I can clear all cookies, cache, history etc except for the sites that i have “fireproofed”.
Yes I can see the risk.
