Hello,
I work for a financial institution. In March 2019, I asked my employer for 5 days leave. It was refused, which can happen and was fine. I took 1 day instead as it was a family event.
In July 2019 I had an operation for an incurable disease I have. It went horribly wrong and I was off sick for nearly 8 months.
In March 2020 I returned to work on a phased basis.
In July 2020 my father in law died and I asked for my annual leave to travel to attend the funeral and be with family. I was told that I wasn't entitled to leave as I was on sick leave even though I was on a phased return basis working 2.5 days a week.
I was advised by my line manager to go back to the organization doctor to get signed off so I could attend the funeral.
I asked my employer to pay me my statutory leave for 2019 and they won't.
I just want to ask if this is correct?
Many thanks
