Reducing working hours

setanta74 · 2008-08-15 09:45:47

General question - If an employee has a contract for say 40 hours a week 9 to 5 then can an employer reduce an employees hours say down to 35 hours per week due to a change in shift patterns and work practices? Does the employee have the right to demand to work for 40 hours per week?
