Today is salary day, boss surprises us with a 40% cut, I refused the pay
Little background, we work for a hotel and we recently closed for this year, and a handful of essential workers were left, while 90% were sent home. We had a great summer season this year, and bussines was very good. Now although hotel is closed we have a lots of work, cleaning, maintenance, and sale for next year( my job).
So payday comes today and our boss hands us our pay, 40% deducted, saying it will stay that way until next year. So essentially I refused the pay and told them that they can't inform me of a pay cut on the day of the pay, especially such significant one, and refused to sign the pay sheet. All the other workers just grudged a little and essentially accepted the cut.
I know a lot of the tourism sector has been hit, but not this place, we absolutely killed this year.
I told our boss that he can either giveme full pay tomorrow or I quit.
That's about it, I don't really need any advice, because I already decided quitting, just wanted to share my frustration of my colleagues lack of action on such injustice.
