Apologies,

I'm after the specific dates for the start and end of each period which relates to the calculation of the average hours while on annual leave.

For instance I know the first period for 2025/26 starts on 31st March but some periods are 4 weeks and some are 5.

Last year someone posted a small graphic which had them nicely listed. I am just looking for that same graphic but with this financial years periods on it. Ot at least a point in the right direction where I can find it

Have you tried asking HR through 'the App'?
