Don't know how many are allowed off at one time for A/L at my office but we had 14 off sick last week. I even saw the DOM had turned up on Saturday morning in a track suit and trainers to go out and do walks :chuckle
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Our office has ten walks and only two allowed off at one time. Last year it was three but our area has a holiday ban imposed just now. Don't know what the union legal people are doing as people who carried over holidays from last year for one reason or another can't take them. Now people are just going off sick so the W@NKERS running the company are not so clever. :left: :left: :left:

The P&M agreement states that for every duty lapsed it would allow an extra member of staff to take A/L. Take a copy to your Dom and ask for the week off. If he says no then tell him you aint lapsing. Put in a grievance if he tries to insist.
The time has come to stop turning the other cheek, time to stop shaking our heads in bitter dismay, time to stop mumbling our angry words.
The time has come for union.
