Re: Can you be made to do the work you would be doing while on annual leave before yo
Of course Ailbhe. No worries. Just when I saw your location I thought you might be working for some of the big brokers in Galway and wondered why they couldn't sort holiday time around everyone.
Very few brokers with so many offices iykwim unless spread out countrywide.
I mean everyone takes holidays in the summer and most places (at least the places I have worked) plan around holidays and have made sure that there is a continuity of service and that there is enough staff to cover.
Brian imho there should be absolutely no reason why you couldn't operate normally when someon is off. Surely there are procedures in place to minimise disruption. Customer service is first and foremost, so someones claim not being looked after because "Sorry X is on holidays" doesn't wash?
Work in most places are deputised. You hold a meeting with the person drafted in to look after things in your absence and you document what has to be done, what to look out for, what you have agreed ect.. ect...
