Hi All,
I have a possible breach of contract issue/ failure to provide service.
Back in July I went to work as a contract employee. I had to sign a formal employment contract that included a NDA, all work is property of the company, 6 month non compete, etc. All pretty much a standard package provided to contractors. As part of the employee package an entire page of benefits offered including a 1500 hour longevity bonus. Now almost 1400 hours later, after making an inquiry into the bonus, I'm told that I don't qualify for most of the benefits because the agency wasn't contracted to fill the position. They stated they were doing a favor cause the company has a good relationship and that they only are providing payroll services.
In addition I'm now being told that several other benefits are null and void
Since my employee package contains references to these benefits do I have a legal point to persue the issue?
Btw: The bonus amount is $500 and while not a excessive amount it's still not exactly pocket change. Please advise.. thank you
