We have an employee who works 3 full days and 1 half day per week. Using the online holiday entitlement calculator it says they are entitled to 137.2 hours which works out at 19 full days and almost a half day. Our business is closed 17days per year and employees are required to use annual leave to cover these day, due to this our employee only has 2½ days annual leave to use as they wish. To me this doesn't seem overly fair, should there not be the option to take business closure as unpaid leave. Would like to hear some opinions on this as unsure how to best manage this as the employee is asking questions
I'm just deducting 3.5 days when the business is closed for a full week. All the business closure days happen to fall on their working days and as they work a Monday, that's all the bank holidays as well. Business is closed 3 full weeks of the year which is 10.5 days for them, and then all the bank holidays and we take 2 days at halloween
