Just looking for some advice really it’s on behalf on my Mrs she works as a store manager for well known high street shop
She has been doing the job for over 4 years and the store is doing well and profit increases year on year.
So shows that she’s doing well etc ..
she doesn’t even have a deputy and she has taking the role on to save the store more money.
I know this doesn’t warrant a pay rise just giving some background,
anyway after a few years of promising and putting together a business plan to show her store can afford her increase as they base the wages on how much each store takes etc..
another local store’s line manager has had an increase above what that store allows (hope I make sense)
So chasing her line manager she agreed and gave the £3k rise signed a change of details form and all was good and rosey.
Until today where she was informed that she will only now only be getting a £1k rise which was changed by HR.
Now i would have thought if the line manager had agreed and signed a document off from the 10th October 2017 she would be on the £3k rise from that date it was a change of details form and the line manager also asked the regional manager if this ok and he agreed with the rise.

Does she have a case to fight and if so what’s the best way to go about this.?

Thanks

I know it’s so annoying,
however we are not in a position to call their bluff

Would a change of details formed signed and dated showing the increase not suffice?
