Any advice?
Yet again the arsehole boss has gone off again, apparently I can not leave work early, change shift times for midwife appointments because it is unfair on everyone else. I understand if I left it last minute but I have written down the next 3 appointments and scans and handed them to my boss about 5 weeks ago, and yet they still haven't been taken into account when they do the Rotas! How on earth am I meant to book my midwife appointments when the Rotas aren't set and they aren't put up till last minute and surely midwife appointments should be a decent reason as to leave work early if they have forgotten to rota me as off or a early finish!!
Had just about enough of this place!

It's awful it's causing me so much stress I go home and just want to cry most days because it's horrible working here, but with my partner out of work I have to stay otherwise we have no income and can't afford not to work :( xxx

I was with a small company and with them for less than a year it doesnt mean your not allowed to go to midwife or hospital appointments, they have to let you go, I think it's law that they have to let you go. If they don't then tell him you want to see the complaints procedure and put a complaint in about him, to him. If he then makes it even more difficult you could speak to midwife and get signed off or go to citizens advice and ask what you can do xxx

I'd been at my job 3months @sarah2112 when I fell pregnant Lol As the other ladies have said. Legally they have to allow maternity appointments. They're also paid I might add. So it's not a case of asking, it's a case of notifying him when you will be going to appointments. Don't let him bully or guilt trip you.

Will do! Got my partner to contact citizens advice, may even speak to my doctor. I spoke to my midwife about it and she wrote them a letter which ended up me getting shouted at and it thrown in the bin xxx

@sarah2112, he cannot stop u. its against the law and he also couldnt have u in for disaplinary or anything like that either due to having time off for these. best thing u cud do was go off with stress and go thru tribunal then ull still get ur wage and maternity allowance and wont have to deal with the cock again xx

He can't stop you going to mw appointments you are legally allowed to leave shift and return after your appointment (that's what my old boss told me)

he can't stop you from going, it's illegal you have a right to go to midwife appointments when they are booked in. I'd go higher and maybes mention it to a bigger boss x
