Hiya
I work in the shoe and household department at Primark in Bury and I work 20 hours a week on the 7am-11am Mon-Fri shift. Now, on Friday, whilst doing overtime, me and another co-worker on the same department were chatting about our shifts (he works Monday-Friday 3pm-7pm) and we got talking and he asked me would I mind swapping shifts with him permanently as he would prefer the earlier shift (once the overtime period was over, which will be 30th July)?
Personally, I am a flexible lass and wouldn't mind swapping shifts (he said he wanted the earliest shift for personal reasons). Now, we both work at the new Bury store and therefore started at the same time and got our contracts at the same time and our contracts both are temporary (both expiring on 24th December with the very likely possibility of them becoming permanent)
Because we're on the same department, got very similiar contracts and both would be happy to swap with each other, would this be possible to do or would Primark be stubborn and say "No. You get what you're given"? If it is possible, how do we go about getting our shifts swapped?
Anyway, I'll shut up now :-) Any advice/help would be gratefully recieved :-)
