Our company recently offered a 16 hour job to a volunteer, she is a single parent who gave notice to the Benefits agency and housing benefits dept and was due to start on the 4th August. On the 31st July 2 of the 4 Directors withdrew the employment without giving a reason, other that they wished to check the finances, which are more than adequate. The young lady in question has been left bereft and quite understandaby. She had been given a letter acknowledging the offer which she furnished to the Benefits Agency in order to claim WFTC and the childcare element. Can you please advise whether as her Manager I can reinstate the offer or does she have any rights? I feel quite strongly that this has nothing to do with the young lady in question more to do with a former member of staff. Please advise.
