It seems he was employed as an industrial worker in 1993 and never signed a contract. He was promoted to supervisor in 1994 and to a manager in 1996. He has only got a copy of a letter offering him the new position in 1996 and pay with no mention of terms and conditions at all.From what you say, is it correct to assume, that every employee who was promoted post 1995 was moved to the full rate?
Regards sick pay schemes, this to should be covered in his contract.
For example.
Full pay for X months, half pay for Y months etc ( or none).
It would also state that those who pay the full rate get equivalent benefits but must claim from social welfare.
They either give the cheque (old school) tote employer or the employer reduced their pay by the equivalent amount.
Either way they should get the benefits there contract says they are entitled to.
Your husband got a P60 each year from 1993 to when they stopped issuing them.
In 1996 it should have stated X weeks class D and Y weeks class A.
Post 1996, depending on his age at the time he may not initially have qualified for certain social welfare benefits.
Was this ever the case and how was it addressed?
He says that other employees who were industrial workers pre 1995 were put on an A stamp and on promotion pre 1995 were put on a D stamp( which was given to management or clerical so the PRSI rate was linked to the job. )
Hence, They have been able to retire earlier.
He however was promoted to supervisor in 1994 and manager in 1996 but kept on an A stamp and he is fairly sure that means age 65 for retirement as its linked to the industrial worker terms and conditions?
He has always been an A stamp and never had an issue with social welfare benefits and has his records showing him as A.
This issue actually came to light for one of the employees who thought he could get his dental work done on his A stamp, only to be told by social welfare that he didnt qualify as he was a D stamp. All very confusing!!
‘From what you say, is it correct to assume, that every employee who was promoted post 1995 was moved to the full rate?’
Not 100 % but I think so on the above. But this didnt happen pre 1995.
