i worked recently at a booth in sitex. the pay was crap, 50 bucks a day,we had total 40 mins break over 12 hrs of work. and, to compound the issue now, i still havent got paid, as none of my work friends have. none of us have got paid.
the booth i worked for is not a fly by night outfit, i wont post its name here. but the guy said on the last day of sitex that he will call by 2 weeks, most likely within 1 week.
so u know, now more than 2 weeks already.
one of my friends who worked there too, went to his shop and said he wasnt there. i smsed him at 2pm today, till now no reply.
everyone whom i know that worked at sitex have been paid.
is there anything i can do?cant go to CASE right? there was no contract signed.
You mean you didn't even sign a contract or a statement for your employment?
If it is so , you are basically screwed . The guy , if he is not honest, can claim to never have employed you. Sorry to say that.
take it as a lesson - never work for someone unless you have something in writing which states clearly that you will get paid.
