Change of Job role - what rights?

[hman]

Hi,

I'm about to have my job role changed, the position is equal to or slightly more senior, but the new managment under which I will be working is questionable.

What rights to trialing this new position do I have?,

Also

Can elements such as my notice period (as identified in my original contract) be changed by managmenet when I change job roles? Currently the contract is 3 months notice, can they reduce this if they wish to?

Thanks for your help.

If you are moving as part of a re-deployment within a redundancy process then you have the right to a statutory trial period.

redundancy redeployment hasnt been mentioned - yet!

if its not part of a redunancy redeployment do I still have a statutory trial period, and who long is the trial period anyway?

[edc]

In that case then there is no 'right' to a trial period unless dictated by the terms and conditions of employment. If this was within a redundancy process then you would be entitled to a 4 week trial period (or longer if extended by agreement).

ok, thats simple enough then!

Thanks for your help.

Ok, Now they are talking about making me redundant and that there is a new job which I may wish to apply for.
