Holidays

Post by gazza3010 »

What's the unions ruling on taking your annual leave. I find it near impossible to swap holidays to fit in with my families schedule to be together on leave at the same time. If I can't swap hols then tuff luck, you have to take your leave without your family. I have 6 weeks off a year what's the point of having this leave if you can't take your holidays with your family. There are couples in work who have their hols together so what's the difference.
