Should I be paid

lethalJB

Hi guys,
Wondering if someone can give me a bit of advice. I resigned from my last job 3 weeks ago and still havent got paid for the week i worked. The company has now gone into examenership and im wondering am i legally entitled to my wages.

I also had 2 weeks paid holidays due to me. Before i left i was told by the manager i could finish on one weeks notice instead of two.

I also worked 9 hours a day but got paid for 8. I brought it up with the manager who said theyd sort it but nothing.

Still no p45 either

Whats my best options? any advice appreciated


Thanks

Focus on job hunting ??
Or if you have work just move on.

Join a union, and contact the WRC (workers relations centre) in the morning and they will help you out

Did the nine hours a day include lunch?

Contact your nearest Citizens Information centre, they can advise you on your rights in these situations. It takes quite a while to get any money if the company is gone out of business. You might get statuary redundancy paid by the government. As the above poster said concentrate on looking for a new job and get in contact with the Social Welfare department about your dole payments as well.

You'll be ranked and treated as a creditor of the company. Contact the examiner and let him know how much you are owed. Detail it for them. If the company exits examinership you'll get paid. If not (Is liquidated), you may get a % of the money owed (based on what assets the company is left with).

As for joining a union to negotiate with an examiner who is specifically and legally obliged to treat creditors in a prescribed manner... it's pointless.

The OP left the company and would not be entitled to redundancy.

You already had two weeks of holidays built up? Or were they carried over from last year?
