    Oh ok. :) I don't think he asked me anything like that. All he asked was was I available for induction on Saturday!

    hi, as far as i know, if they call, text or email you offering you work for that day then you have to either tell them you can make it or that you cant make it. if they dont make contact with you then i think you just leave it. but if they dont reply to there call text then they wont call you again.

    Im waiting for a text to work saturday as well

    You must inform, them ideally by e-mail ,whether available or not . Aviva need to know how many staff on the day . Basic security requirements. Takes around two weeks to be paid depending on which batch you are in, they pay out in batches or groups. Shouldnt matter once the events become more regular.

    Mine was last May, so probably a bit early for you. You will get work soon because staff, for whatever reason, dont return and they always need new people.

    If its any consolation i'm in the same situation. I had my induction in mid June
    and replied to the text message confirming that I was available about two weeks ago and have not heard anything. I've been ringing them for the last few days and they just keep saying they will look into it and ring me back... but they never do, so I'm absolutely livid with them at this stage.

    I know this is probably the last thing you want to hear, but it clearly states in the contract that "we are no obliged to offer you work". It was also said that it's all on a first come first serve basis. For catering anyway.
    I wouldn't be surprised though if people pull out for Saturday, or the other dates, so you may still be offered hours.

    Yeah the part that they are not obliged to offer you work is fair enough, but the lack of communication is what angers me

    That is the exact same as me! I rang last monday ago to confirm I could work on Saturday and he told me he would be sending be a job card over the next few days..I never got one so I rang again this week to see whats going on and he said he'd look into it but i've still heard nothing. I've been trying to get through this morning to see whats going on but i just keep getting a voicemail.

    Aviva have just e-mailed me to say Stewards reporting for work tomorrow must some form of valid I.D.,Driving Licence, Passport.etc. This is to enable them to issue you with a Staff Access Card.
