What happens to my claim if I leave my job?
Your claim will freeze on the last day of your employment in that job - but it will include up to six years back pay and the extra time added on since your claim was registered with your employer.
What if I move to another job within the council?
You should consider taking out another claim for the new job - because then the process can start all over again - unless you've earned some big promotion and huge pay rise into the bargain - it's likely your new job will have just as good a claim as your old one.
What if I reduce my hours?
Your claim will be based on all hours worked - over the period of your claim - employers often base their 'buy out' offers on the lower number of hours - so women who reduce their hours for childcare reasons, for example, are cheated twice over.
What if I leave the council altogether?
Your claim still continues along with all the others - it just freezes when you leave because you cannot keep adding time on to the claim if you are no longer employed by the council. However, you may have a claim in your new job - many NHS workers (nursing and other staff) have similar claims to those employed by councils.
