Are you on a permanent contract? Is it fixed or flexible? If so, turn up tonight. If you are not to go in for any reason, this should be up to the manager to tell you, and explain why. The only possible thing I can think is maybe some allegation of wrongdoing by you, in which case you will prob be asked to stop at home pending investigation. But once again, this should be the managers remit, not a fellow colleague. If I were you, I'd record everything that has been said thus far, but go in tonight. If they send you home, they can tell you why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"you will find out what its about when you get there" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if you are due in, go in and work. Do you want to risk being short timed on your wages? I don't know who you work for, and how scrupulous they are, but any reputable employer would inform you properly if you were not to go into work for whatever reason. The other staff don't have the authority to tell you not to go into work, if your contract states you should be working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all, what if it was someone at work playing a trick on you or trying to get you in bother for some reason? Like Loubbe said, any instruction like this should come from your Manager.

Like Loubbe said, any instruction like this should come from your Manager. And if its not coming from your manager, then why not??? I really would go in. As I said, the only reason I can think why they would ask you to stay away is some sort of disciplinary issue, and if so, the instruction should be coming from your manager. And probably in writing, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weenireeni Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 maybe there are redundancies at your work and the management dont want you finding out from staff, so want you to wait till tomo to hear officially? good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
