I would like to find out what options I have in regards to the following. There is a more in depth backstory, but long story short, I was forced to transfer from one branch to another 14 months ago. There were already two people at the new branch performing the same role as I was and have continued to perform. Then a new staff member was hired to fill the vacancy left by my transfer at the original branch. Then today, I was given 2 ½ hours notice to attend a meeting where I was handed documentation advising that there is ‘potential redundancy of your position’. I was also handed a Deed of separation and release. (basically effective immediately.) There has been ongoing communication between HR and myself of late in regards to being paid below the base salary for the role, and so I find this turn of events suspicious and not coincidental.
Who or where would be best to advise me further? I have spoken to Fair Work Australia and they have said that because I haven’t been unfairly dismissed, there is nothing they can do at this stage.
