    Hello,

    I am hoping you can help me with an enquiry regarding payment.
    Myself, and a friend worked in sales, I worked for an event guide mag, he worked for Car mag, but both companies are run by the same guy, and we where paid by the same company.
    We both tendered our resignation on Wednesday 5th October 2005, and as is customary in target driven sales position, and due to the fact that we had both been employed by the company for only 7 weeks, did not work any notice, but finished at the end of the day.

    I have been informed that I will receive payment for all days worked from 28th Sep until day of the departure, and this will be paid into my account on Friday 21st October. However, my friend has been informed that he will receive no payment as he did not work a period of notice.

    What are his rights concerning this matter. It was not explained to him at the time that a specific length of notice was required, or that he would forfeit payment should he not work a certain period of notice.
    Also, I was of the belief that once employed with a company for less then 13 weeks, neither the employee, or the employer is required by law to give any notice when deciding to terminate a contract.

    Any help that you can give me regarding this matter would be much appreciated,
    Thanks a Million

    Audrey

    I'd remove those specific names and details. Not usually a good idea to post peoples names on the web.

    It would be best if you removed all personal information from your signature, and from your post.
