Holiday Slots

Post by Coffee lover »

Is there a standard amount of holiday slots per office as we have a new manager who is now only allowing 5 people off per week, this used to be seven under our previous manager who also allowed eight in July and August, manager says he allowed too many off and was wrong but now several people can’t get weeks they want as already booked up, manager told people today that’s just the way it is! Unhelpful as usual but is this allowed? We have the same amount of walks after revision and in total 39 walks in office

Should be 8 slots
Must have about 55 staff if that amount of walks

Yes but we don’t have the staff! Like every where by the sounds of it, and people are fed up with extra lapsing and now less choices of holiday! What can we actually do about this as no union rep

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
