Long story shortish:
Im on Mat leave and have paid leave until May but can have till SEpt off. I have 228hours Annual leave to take, as most of last year I was off sick with pregnancy stuff.
I didnt promise to go back, so didnt get the benefit of 12weeks extra 1/2 pay. However, after discussions with HR yesterday we worked out that if I can "go back on 18hours" I could then take the 228hour leave and therefore would have gone back for 13 weeks. If I go back to my job for 13 weeks I get the 12weeks 1/2 half as a lump sum. Does that make sense? So although I would be back to work on paper, I would never physically have to go back and then could hand my notice in.
I know it sounds like Im trying to get every penny I can, but have worked for them for 8 years.
My boss called and said nope, cant do, you didnt take the 12weeks in the first place your loss. Told me she wanted my 4 weeks notice and my AL will be paid in one huge lump sum! So I miss out on over £1K
Im in tears now, and think I will make her wait it out till Sept now, just to be a pain. I know she has someone lined up for my job.
Sorry was meant to be short, thanks if you got this far.
