Hi, I really hope somebody can help me because i'm in a pretty bad situation at the moment...
I recently accepted a new position for a large mining organisation and was due to start on Monday 26th February. I have handed my resignation in at my current workplace which is a full time permanent role. Last week, the new employer contacted me to advise they have decided they will be cancelling the contract due to a new restructuring plan. I am now in a really bad situation where I have handed my notice in and do not have another position to go to.
Is there anything that I can legally do? I feel really hard done by and feel I should be entitled to some form of compensation at the very least.
Looking forward to hearing back with some advice
