your annual leave does not consist of days anymore

if it consisted of days then yes you would have 3 days 'less' but only because you work longer days and use more hours when you are off

As your annual leave is in hours you don't

on the old system say you had 6 weeks consisting of 7.48 days ( 5 days) 5 x 7.48 = 39 hours 39 hours x 6 = 234 hours annual leave

new system 4 weeks 3 days consisting of 8.40 days (6 days) 6 x 8.40 = 52 hours 52 hours x 4.5 = 234 hours annual leave

but on the new system you also have to add in your extra 13 weeks you have for your rest weeks

You have not lost any days they have just been used differently
Take a look at the bottom part of this again

27 days is 4.5 weeks on a 6 day - you have not lost anything

you may get paid for 39 weeks when you are off but you use 52 hours - otherwise you would not get your week off ( rota) after you have had annual leave

This really should have been explained to you!

your leave was never reduced

30 days on a 5 day week is 6 weeks

30 days on a 6 day week is 5 weeks!

yes mate you are right... we are entitled to 234 hrs annual leave.(20 yrs and over) and if you devide this number by 52hrs it gives us 27 days... which equates to 234hrs. so we get the same as everybody else..my apologies and thanks for putting me right. cheers. i can rest easy now knowing am not being short changed. :Very Happy

We have had this system in for the last 5yrs and on my annual leave i got minus 6 days each year ,

Even though i am entitled to the extra week as long service 20+ yrs , so having read the other posts

Was this right in having the annual leave deducted for the wallington system
