I am coming towards the end of my maternity leave (taken the full year) and I have only just realised that I am entitled to holiday accrued during this year. Am I still entitled? Does the employer usually let people know or is it a free-for-all? It is a small company so does not have HR but does have an accountant and office manager who I think between them must have known (I am the only person to have taken maternity leave). I will ring up but would like to know if anyone else has had this conversation? I know they won't like it, and I don't really care because I want extra time with my baby, but I hate awkward conversations. Also I am feeling cheated because they didn't mention it on my last maternity leave 3 years ago and these are weeks that would really have meant something to me then. Even if it is just my job to know this, I still feel deceived by them as they must have known.
