Annual Leave Issues

i have listed before about issues with my employers in the public sector. I am still not sure if I am being victimised/bullied or just very badly managed.

It has always been the case, because of the structure of our unit, that I can only have leave if 4 other people are in. That's bad enough, but now I am being told that only one person can be off in any one week.

This means that if someone else is off on say Monday and Tuesday, I cannot have Thursday off, even though everybody who works on Thursday (except me) will be in.

I have grudgingly been given a days leave today for a wedding on a Thursday, but have been told firmly that this is an exception. I have also been told that I must take all outstanding leave for this year before July.

Is this unreasonable and, if it is, what do I do?

I think it is unreasonable of them. If someone is only off the Monday and Tuesday why can't you have the Thursday? The other person will be in so you are one person up.
Have you spoken to HR? It definitely seems a bit off.

Thanks. It doesn't make any sense to me.
