wedding special leave
Am I right in thinking I can have time off paid (under special leave A) for my wedding. I heard its based on your holiday entitlement. I currently have just over 4 weeks as I have been working for the Royal Mail for 3 1/2 years.
Thanks for any help

• 3 days if leave entitlement is 6 weeks.
• 4 days if leave entitlement is 5 weeks 3 days.
• 5 days if leave entitlement is 5 weeks.
• 3 days if leave entitlement is 6 weeks.
• 4 days if leave entitlement is 5 weeks 3 days.
• 5 days if leave entitlement is 5 weeks.

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.

Some unpaid leave is a legal entitlement.
All paid special leave is discretionary.
Don't go in talking about entitlements...your manager may just find a sound business reason to refuse especially if the notice is short.
Rules are rules...guidance is another thing altogether.
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

It's a well known fallacy that married men live longer, they don't really of course - it just seems longer.Lounge Lizard wrote:Lifetime ?ebbzie wrote:Is the 5 days worth a life time?????cavendish9027 wrote:so I'm entitled to 5 days....?Might be marrying late in life to reduce the sentence.

We go to the naughty room for a bit of piece and quiet DG - I have now installed electricity in my sheds and greenhouse, so when it gets dark I can slope off and still read "those" magazinesDGP1 wrote:Don't I know itdvbuk55 wrote: It's a well known fallacy that married men live longer, they don't really of course - it just seems longer.I know it's true because I've been married 40 years and it seems like 90 - could Alcatraz have been worse I sometimes wonder.
