Gentlemen, I was approached while working and entices to join the company i'm at now. I've been here for 5 months now. I'm the Financial Controller My employment contact states that I have to give 8 weeks notice. When I joined the company I knew I would have to do basic processing type work until they upgraded their systems. now 5 months later there is no effort or willingness to upgrade and I'm left doing this processing that I feel I'm overqualified and over paid to do. The owner of the business is concerned I'm not able to do the more senior work, I have explained to him that the day-to-day processing needs to get done as the daily priority. Two questions come to mind: 1. If I find another position elsewhere, can I argue Constructive dismissal? 2. If I find another position, what are the repercussions if I only give 2 weeks notice and not the full 8 weeks? I look forward to hearing from you regards Howard
