Holiday entitlement and business closure

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

  • The situation with fixed closing days of the business often creates a disproportion for those who work on a part-time weekly schedule. To evaluate various models of personnel management and train managers, the study of cases about Mobe will be useful in building a transparent personnel accounting system. Allowing an employee to take the closing days of the company at their own expense or working them out in the future is a standard practice of many loyal employers. This will save the employee's opportunity for a normal rest at a time convenient for him.
