HR related Sick Leave f**k up

31 replies

Tortington · 10/01/2007 16:19

on the 8th Dec got a sick not for 3 weeks.

came back to work this week on monday of this week

so
The sick note was signed on the 8th - this was a Friday.
week one was 11-15th Dec
week two was 18 -22nd Dec

Then we all had xmas week off 25-29th

Week three was 1st-5th January ( last week)

The confusion may arise becuase of xmas week. However I was certain only becuase the doctor specifically said to me that xmas is a stressful time anyway therefore he would give me an extra week after xmas.

Otherwise i would have had 2 weeks sick + xmas hols.

my boss says that last week isn't covered - well hes intimating rather than outright saying and adding "dont worry about it"

so ofcourse i am

can anyone help?

NOT THE BANK HOLIDYAYS

Oh right oh, I misunderstood I was assuming that you mean't Xmas Day, Boxing Day and New Years Day !

I forgot that not everyone works between the bank holidays over the Xmas "break".

In which case you have to put it down as sick so it can't be holiday as well so you still have those 3 days to use later.

Doesn't matter which 3 days.

Any days deducted from your annual leave allowance for the period of 8/12 - 29/12 should be given back. You were sick.

Don't shout, not everyone gets to have an uninterrupted 10 day break at Xmas

smittenkitten · 10/01/2007 18:07

erm, at the risk of being shouted at, whether or not you will get pre booked holiay back depends entirely on your employer's policy. You are not necessarily entitled to it back - you'll need to check with your manager/HR what your absence rules are.

thank you
i apologose for shouting earlier - i resented the inference that i was trying to do someone out of something.

i in fact just wanted clarity.

thank you for all your advice
