Jib wage

[flyingsausage]

Ok thanks for all your views on this. Would I still be able to go ahead with my claim under employment laws ect. If my company pulled out of the jib. E.g because I'm doing same job same grade and so on

The answer is yes,but you must seek some professional help with this.

FES Use to have 100 guys on different rates ect ect JIB/SJIB even say that the rates are a "guide"

FES still pay some of their Clampits with a daily rate,and their rate depends on who they are related too.

One of the worst electricial contractors in Scotland - scum of the earth

there is no criminal offence in not paying the JIB rate for the qualification. It is not acceptable, however under the JIB rules.

Again, as I said, there could be a breach of contract and therefore unlawful (i.e. illegal) deduction of wages.

Secondly the time requirement of the Approved grade has gone. An Electrician simply has to take the relevant C&G course (2391) and once completed is entitled to the grade under JIB rules..

Source? Are you sure on this? I thought it was still a minimum of 2 years at Electrician grade and the 2391 prior to Approved grade?

It cannot be an illegal deduction when he is getting underpaid in the first place.
The man has to see an expert in these matters who can guide him down the right route to take.

Of course it can. If they are not paying what the contract requires them to pay then it is an unlawful deduction and can be pursued through legal avenues.

I see where you are comming from.

If his contract of employment states he is employed as an electrician then that is his pay rate if his contract was changed to be employed as an approved electrician then he would get the approved rate quite simple really

 

[flyingsausage]

They will not change his contract - that is the problem

 

[UNG]

But do they have too

The rules have all changed for the worse since I got my approved so I don't know what the current rules are now.But when I got my approved I remember it meant that my employer got a letter from the grading commitee telling them about my change of grade and instructing them to pay the rate for that new grading change of pay.
The boys employers are at it and need brought to task.
