This is the way it also works in our office ...... we've never used seniority for holiday allocationslinger wrote:You sure seniority exists on holiday picking? - doesn't in our office anymore. Everyone gets a fair shot at any week, if it's over booked names go in a hat.Pegman wrote:I've got my summer holiday booked for next year, week in Cornwall, January the f***ing fourth to the ninth, my missus is over the moon, I hate bloody seniority
Re days off - our days off roll round, so if your day off this week is Tues, next week it'll be Weds, week after Thurs etc etc - great as every 6 weeks you have a Sat followed by a Mon.
Odd days in annual leave are fine and you can have them when is free and apparently we've just learned that when picking weeks it does not have to be mon to mon, but can be say weds to weds.
Surely this is a fairer way for everybody ?
