What people are saying about sick pay at B&Q
-
Best thing
Reasonable pay
Worst thing
Often no overtime available (so not helpful during breaks from uni); managers expect you to be very flexible with working shifts and push for you to work every weekend when you’re not entirely flexible during the week. Management mostly help their own departments and let others in store struggle. Very difficult to get any increase in contracted hours (unless you agree to work all weekend, every weekend)

Best thing
The people I work with, they treat me well. My supervisor always checks I'm okay and is (usually) open to changing shifts if other commitments come up (funerals, christening, etc...)
Worst thing
Sometimes it feels like management put earning money from sales as more important than our wellbeing (e.g. a customer will tell and swear at us but management won't do anything about it such as asking them to leave). When asked to do longer hours (8/9 hours) you sometimes have to almost 'fight' for your breaks which can get very annoying.
