#FairWages #EmployeeRights #EventWork
Hey everyone! 👋 Have you ever been in a situation where your employer couldn’t afford to pay you for your hard work? I recently experienced this at a large event in my town, and I wanted to hear your thoughts on how to handle it. Here’s what happened:
– A friend asked me to work a 3 day event for £12 an hour with them.
– On the 2nd day, the employer mentioned they might not be able to pay me if things were slow.
– I made the tough decision to walk out and plan on sending an invoice on Monday.
What would you do in this situation? How do you think I should handle it moving forward?
I’m thinking of discussing this with them and possibly negotiating a fair compensation plan. What are your thoughts on this approach? Share your insights below! 🤔💬 #Discuss #EmployeeRights #HelpNeeded
Be sure to ask them if they can afford to deal with the department of labor when you tell them your wages are being stolen.
This doesn’t sound like a friend

Stand up for yourself. No one will do it for you.
You switched from “friend” to “employer” pretty quick.
I would have taken my pay from the cash box before leaving
So you didn’t end up getting paid? Tf? Take your money!
