We have a bit of a mess in work at the moment regarding entitlements to public/bank holiday leave for part time employees. I have listed the 3 senarios below and would appreciate any advice.
Employee 1: Works 3 day week: Monday, Thursday, Friday
This employee has informed the office he is entitled to a day off in lieu of St. Patricks day which was a Tuesday, even though he never works on Tuesdays
Employee 2: Works 3 day week: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday
This employee has informed the office he is entitled to a day off in lieu of Good Friday, even though he never works on Fridays
Employee 3: Works 4 day week: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday
This employee has informed the office he is entitled to a day off in lieu of Good Friday, even though he never works on Fridays
Staff of only 7 so no HR department. The boss is one of the employees listed above, beleives he is entitled to a day off, and is puzzled why full time staff are challenging him on it so no help there either.
Full time staff feel that this precedence should not be set. If it was and somebody new started part time in the future, and Monday was not one of their set days, then this would mean they would be entitled to an additional 6/7 days leave per year in lieu of bank/public holidays........surely this is not right?
