hi peeps,this is to do with work in a roundabout way ,had a letter stating that i had to take holidays this year till april 2010,booked for 1 week a way, not abroad ,phoned work to inform them that i was going as per letter instruction ,only to be told we cant authorise that you are still on the sick ,so i said stop my weeks half pay then cos we have got to get away.no cant do that either,anyway the holiday rota is full so you cant ,i would be on rehab anyway talk about helpful .wish i'd never phoned the bu**ers,I tried to do the right thing by telling them and i get slapped down by them. holmesi

    I am shaking my head from side to side in an incredulous manner!

    Tell them if they can't accomodate you that you'd like the pay instead. That's what my hubby did and his employers gave him the leave!

    If your sick youre sick....e.g. if youre off with say depression and onsick you can go on holiday on sick not use leave.
    If they are refusing leave check out acas on holidays....its great cos theyre well stitched up!
