Coronavirus: Your workplace questions

At this difficult time, we'd like to offer people managers (and others) who are not CIPD Members an opportunity to ask questions about their specific workplace challenges.

We hope that collectively, the Community will feel able to chip in with guidance and signpost support and resources where these exist.

Thank you.

  • I am curious to see how other HR professionals are dealing with holiday carry over? I just joined a company and the holiday is due to reset in January and noticed a lot of employees have over 25 days to take from now until the end of December. I was under the impression that the change was aimed at allowing businesses under particular pressure from the impacts of COVID-19 the flexibility to better manage their workforce, while protecting workers' right to paid holiday.  

  • Lilia if you use the search facilities you will find a number of questions around holiday, carry over etc during Covid (indeed its probably mentioned earlier in this thread)

    Many organisations (including my own) have been mandating a certain amount of leave being taken per quarter during this crisis. You have under the Covid regulation the ability to allow a greater degree of carry over this year - its not a right but something you can do
