Not awolled really, way forward says they can not attend work while on a/l. Plus i think it is law now that staff take four weeks annual leave minuim. The sa payment paid twice a year is supposed to give staff a average of four weeks sa to cover leave periods. Like the older scheme it replaced called improved hoilday pay.

It's not allowed. Has been a thread on this before.

As for working nights when on light duties.... beggars belief

SA
It wouldn't be Wales without SA
In the mid-1950’s Brains introduced SA Best Bitter. This was quickly shortened to the easier bar call of SA and has become one of our most famous beers recognised throughout the country and further a field. SA celebrated its 50th birthday last year which is a testament to its popularity and is currently displayed on the Welsh rugby shirt.
The renowned ‘special ale’ is copper coloured with a full premium quality flavour. A nutty richness derived from a blend of fine pale and crystal malts is balanced with a satisfying dryness from the unique use of three hops: Challenger, Goldings and Fuggles. The aroma has a hint of spirit which adds to the legendary mystique of this premium cask beer.
4.2% ABV

- Noisy bastards!
Not awolled really,
- Absent without official leave? All sounds a bit military.

Sorry, only joking.
