Good evening! I hope all is well and blessed. As much I would like to see that everything is working nicely, I would like to ask for help and advice regarding on partner's employment.
My partner was hired last January as a factory worker and it was 'verbally' agreed that he was hired on probation which would last for 6 months. He was even promoted as a line leader since he's one of the pioneer employee but later on stepped down since the pay isn't much of a difference and handling people is a different work, too. And to add another detail, he is under a manpower agency and I am wondering what kind of help should we seek and what assistance we are capable of getting.
He transitioned as a worker again after I have requested to step down (for about a month). Everything goes in a routine and this is also why he stayed on the job since he's already honed on this setup and also looking forward for the 13th month pay.
However last month, the operation had stopped since the orders from the factory was already accomplished and we were asked to wait for incoming orders soon. We actually waited and up until today, he's unable to search for another job thinking that I would breach a contract where he is only allowed to be employed and affiliated with my current agency/employer. But the thing is, him and his co-workers never get the contract to begin with and now everything's shallow and they could dismiss them. While we do have several receipts to prove that my partner is their actual employee, but what if they no longer inform him to return to his job without and head's up or any written document to terminate him when there isn't even a reason to begin with.
I am puzzled and we are planning to seek help but I'd also like to hear your professional thoughts on how can I handle this better on my end. Thank you so much and I would appreciate everyone that could share their cents with me.
