I've been working in a small retail shop from 8am to 4.30pm 5 days a week. I've recently been told
I must now work until 5pm, without payment for overtime. These are the hours I used to do
a few years ago, and they were reduced as a gesture, because they couldn't afford
to pay me extra. But now I've become accustomed to the extra 1/2 hour a day and I'm quite upset about it,
being that the shop isn't any busier than normal and I'm not really needed that extra 1/2 hour.
Are there any laws regarding extra hours that I should be aware of? Do I have any rights in this situation?
