Contract length

[Sunflower]

I find it hard to believe that they can require you to work without pay or pick up late. Does your contract not state open hours or payment policy? I don't understand how it's permissible for them to BREACH the contract and have no repercussions. I understand you are licensed, and that's how you have subsidy available, but there still has to be protection for you. How many notices until you can take action?

ETA: I hope you don't think I'm second-guessing you here...you know your business certainly better than I do. I'm just floored that you could be so backed into a corner.

No worries lol... I know it sounds unbelievable. I have never had to be in this situation myself but know people who have . I have been told straight from the office that I report to that my only protection is short contracts.
I have read all the legal government documentation and there are no clear procedure as to how many wanings need to be given etc.

It's really up to head office and who they get on the line when they call consumer protection to make a complaint.
Needless to say this scares many of us into putting up with crazy things. Without going into detail I must say I personally do NOT put up with nonsense like non payments.
just wanted to add that some parents DO pay but it is late each time . To me this is also not acceptable.
