[QUOTE="poppet35, post: 1393320, member: 381123"] The staff are on contracted hours, but if a customers passes away or moves then it would be my job to look at taking on new work or restructuring rotas to ensure all staff continue to meet their hours. So they could be paid for 25 hours but only working 18 perhaps until I bring them back up with new work. So it looks like they consider this to be financial, there haven't been any care contracts broken whilst I've been in post. The disciplinary meeting will be run by one of the executives - that's policy for a managers disciplinary. They do know a little of me and my work. My office is within head office so it's not like I'm just complete unknown to them. The other attendees will be a manager from another service within the company who heard the original investigation and HR officer to provide administrative function. My job is not a new post and most interestingly the previous manager left due to unrealistic workload. When I was interviewed the role was put forward as a flexible role, I was very clearly told I could work the 30 hours anyway I liked - I could be home based, work whichever days as long as the job was done. The organisation has different services and it is widely recognised internally that the community team is the most difficult in terms of staffing and how the staff are dispersed to manage as opposed to say a residential home. My two areas were nearly an hour between so not massive distance but certainly made it incredibly difficult to physically get there to meet people. [/QUOTE]
