SHORT NOTICE GIVEN
CLERK REQUIRED FOR WAR SERVICE (P.A.) WANGANUI, November 13. After one day back at the office following three months’ territorial training, during which he performed clerical duties in the quartermaster’s office, one of the Wanganui-Rangitikei Electric Power Board’s clerks was called for service for the duration and received little more than half a day’s notice. His obligation was reported by the secretary of the board, Mr G. A. Ammundsen, at the monthly meeting today. A woman clerk who had left the board’s employ to take up a position with the Women’s Auxiliary Air Force was given four days’ notice when the board had been promised one month in which to make staff adjustments. When a complaint was made the notice was extended to two weeks. Mr Ammundsen said he mentioned the matter because he felt employers were entitled to more consideration when employees were required to report for war service.
