Rotation week and sick?

Post by P_ostman »

If you're on the sick during a rotational week off are you entitled to claim that week back?

Regards.

no you cant claim it back, it would be same as if you were on rotating day off rota and then saying as you were sick you want your day off you missed back, so no you dont get it back

Links etc if possible.

As zx135 says if rotating week offs can get it back then so should single day ones - after all both are in essence unpaid.

1 you don't work it. The other you store it up but still are not paid on the other qualifying days you do work.

This could be a big claim

out of six weeks you work five and have one week off youve banked up at least five days which you shouldnt have worked so you should get them back . this is an example of why this wallington week system is nonsense

You don't need a link.
You don't get paid for your rotation week so there is nothing to claim back.
The pay you receive that week is for hours worked over the previous 5 weeks.
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

Because you're wrong and we're interested to know where you got that misinformation from lol

If you're sick on your day off, you don't get that day back, just as if you're sick on a Sunday, you don't get that day back!

But most things on this site can be backed up by national agreements and a spine.

What you're saying can be backed up by just looking at your contract...

Your RWO is no different to your RDO, you're just having all your RDOs one after another. You'd only get your week back if it was holiday and you informed your lino you were sick. But you'd have to weigh up whether you'd want it to go on the absence record or not.
