    The fact that you have worked there means that you have accepted their terms and conditions of employment - you could ask for a copy of your contract as the employer is supposed to give this to you within 3 months of you starting work.

    So far, you have only heard from your husband that some employees hours have been cut so therefore it is only hearsay, you should be notified in writing if your own hours are due to be cut.
