I have been self employed for 7 years decided to go employed.working for corgi companies,all were also agents of boiler manufacturers.
1st company I worked for was a boiler manufacturer,i was finding some new corgi installations at risk,some substandard etc,doing right thing ie paperwork etc. effectively got sacked as i was upsetting boiler manufacturers biggest clients,
I informed corgi about what i should do they didnt really have an answer.apart from well you are doing the right thing etc.
2nd company I worked for owner of the company wasnt gas qualified at all,also no part L but was doing the quotations and deciding where he wanted the boiler to go.
Informed him that position of the flue was incorrect,he didnt want to know about any kind of gas safety,and stated that his company must be ok as corgi havent inspected them for ages. I got sacked again as I refuse to do something wrong.
I left the company and checked with corgi to see who had been registered to fit the boiler as i didnt, the boss registered the installation in my name nice! .Informed corgi they didnt seem that bothered.
3rd Company, similar problems noticing boilers that had been serviced/repaired some were at risk some were plain dangerous ie blocked flue on fire,heat exchanger split,no ventilation etc.Again i was causing to many problems, upsetting to many customers and was sacked.
It appears to me that doing the acs qualifications means very little,and doing the right thing costs you your job.Being corgi registered doesnt mean anything.
The boss stated that he didnt like upsetting customers etc,didnt like hassle of customers phoning him when i left asking why i had cut off their appliances,and why nothing was noticed the year before.
I would appreciate responses
