Law says have to give a reasonable allowance. But I get paid a little more than minimum wage. Can't believe they saying that's the reasonable allowance if if I work 2 hours it's an extra 75cent more than minimum wage but nothing more than working a normal week day.

Some weeks I might only work a Sunday

Not any more, argue you are deeply religious and can't work on a Sunday....

Well I have worked in employee acquisition & several times I have been handed papers stating the inability to work on Sunday as they are religious and "aren't allowed"...

I said that years ago in a job they laughed at me.

Holy the Sabbath is actually Saturday. Not that religious were they

I think I can say they were all of a foreign nationality...

U don't mind working.

I just wanna be paid the reasonable allowance that it says in the law.

But what's considerable reasonable allowance. My pay everyday is the same.

Have a look at the Workplace Relations Commission site. It sets out conditions for pay and premium pay for Sunday and bank holidays.

Some sectors unfortunately have all the rights to protest for their rights but no way to actually get them.

That was Joan Burton's fault. I remember her changing it to make all days the same.

Stupid bitch

Wow some people have no idea about employment rights at all.

First and foremost what work do you do? Despite your contact (and depending on your area of work) you cannot make a contract which is outside Irish employment law legislation.

Mail me if you want help but you need to be more detailed if you want correct advice. I worked as an employment law advisor for Irish companies so I've a pretty good idea on what can/can't be done.
