Someone has given notice at current employment and signed a new contract with another company.
With one week until starting the new job and currently working off the last of their 3 months notice they have been informed that they are no longer needed.
I think they were recruited via an agency if that makes any difference. Apparently the new employer has merged or been taken over, I'm not sure.
I'm not sure the details of the new contract with regards to notice periods. There was mention of a weeks notice and or after 3 months probation.
The only advice I could offer was to take to Citizens Advice and consentrate on finding another new position and then try and sort out any possibilities with the current new employer.
Does anyone have anything else to offer or any experiences. I have never been sacked from a job before I've started or sacked for that matter.
