The best thing I can suggest, because I'm not a lawyer, is for you to read the Dept of Labour's website

http://www.mlsi.gov.cy/mlsi/dlr/dlr.nsf ... enDocument

You could contact them and ask about your rights and about their recommendations for lawyers in case you need one.

Nobody has the right to mistreat employees! Good luck.

avyixy your story isnt the first i have heard and wont be the last, many women are treated with disrespect here, i was in my last job and eventually left. So take a weeks holiday and go look for another job, preferably not with a neandathal for a boss...

Apart from the disrespect to women, it's also a case of self interest with these neanderthals - the longer an employee stays at a company, the more rights they have. The first milestone is the 6 months trial period, the second is the 2 years redundancy qualification (after two years at a company you're entitled to redundancy payment if you're let go). It gets more expensive for the employer the longer you're there. No wonder they behave like that, these kinds of people have no honour whatsoever.

Yes I know.

I have already started looking at ads for work and have even been to two interviews, where conditions were more or less the same as where I am now, so I will not rush into anything but have definitely decided to look for something better.

I'm regulatory affairs officer. Job is excellent, company is going to hell... :twisted:

When weekend is - is it the best time during the week..

I'm looking for new job, but still without success :? I still hope that things will be better
:wink: I'm optimistic.

Get a camera that films with sound or a phone that does it, and start putting a dossier together and then hit him in court with it all...

If I emigrated to Cyprus there is no way I'd get an office job.

I'd get a job on the beach or get a job as a cabareji

sounds like a recipe either for skin cancer or gonorrhea :)

the choice is ALL yours in this free country of ours, heaven knows you'd have plenty of company.
