hello,
i work for the nhs. our manager is now trying to enforce new rules for when we take our annual leave.
they are preposing that we can only take 1 weeks holiday a year during school half term time. And will only be able take 2 weeks between june and september and can only have either a week at christmas or a week at easter, we cannot have time off for both.
we may be able to have more than 1 weeks school holiday time off if nobody else has booked time during those weeks but we cannot try to book it more than 4 weeks ahead of time.
she wants to do this to make it fair for everyone, fair enough but there are only 3 of us with school age children out of around 20 of us. we dont always take the same time off and as we live in two different counties the children have different dates for school holidays. they only let 3 people off at one time.
can they enfoce this now, its not stated in our contracts that we can only take holiday between certain times and can only have 1 weeks holiday with my children a year. if they do this i dont know how im going to cover the school holidays as the childrnes holiday clubs arent suitable fot the hours i work.
thankyou for any comments you might be able to make
