Employment Law Question..........?

I have been with my current employer for around 3 yrs now and still have no written contract of employment or written statement although it has been promised to be sorted out on several occasions. My responsibilities have gone up but i have not been renumerated for this although the other people i work with have had a wage rise due to extra responsibilities which are of no greater importance to mine. I am currently looking for another job in which i will be happy but would like to know what i can do to about my situation just now and what i can expect.

you shouldbe given a contract with 3 months of starting, if you have not, then your current working hours/resonsibilities become your unwritten contract.

If you need more advice visit www.absolutesolution.co.uk check the Q&A's if your answer is not there theres an option to ask it.....they are really really good

If you are going to leave, dont worry about, just give them 1 months notice before you leave and if they givee you an exit interview you can tell them why you are leaving

you may find this of help.

Ask for supervision or an evaluation. List the job and tasks at the point you accepted the position and detail how the job has evolved and renumeration you would have expected for the increase in responsibilities. Some employers need a good hard prod in the right direction, and knowing you have done the job for 3 years should acknowledge your request for a wage rise. Even if you are unhappy working with them and do continue your search for another job. It is a worthwhile exercise as it may put you in a better position to be in a better paid job the next time.

If you keep pressing on your employer to provide something that they have clearly, and passively, ignored, that is probably why you have found yourself in the position you are in.

When I worked for other people, until I reached a VP level, I NEVER had a contract.

Just because your responsibilities go up, doesn't equal a raise. You are free to look for another job, but I think being the "squeaky wheel" at your office has not won you any popularity contests.

You do have a contract with your employer - the fact that you turn up, are given work, do it and get paid constitutes a contract in UK law.
However, an employer has to give you written terms and conditions of employment (to clarify certian issues) within 8 weeks of starting and it is unlawful not to do this.
As previous answerer has said, you need to ask for a supervision and an appraisal where all these issues can be sorted out. They do sound a bit shoddy to me, though.

It is unlawful for an employer not to provide a written statement of terms and conditions within the first 8 weeks of commencing work

As for the wage part....you must ask your employer why you have not been provided with a raise when other people have been
