Hi Girls
Over the past 2 days I have been in talks with my boss with reference to my holidays and bank holidays. I could not find any clear cut information to my question on the internet so I finally called ACAS last night and have had it all sorted out with my boss this morning!
Wanted to pass on the info for anyone else currently confused - lacking information.
My contact states I am entitled to 25 days holiday + Statutory Holidays - 3 day must be kept for the Christmas period
I will be on Maternity leave from May 2011 and have stated I will not return to work until 2012. My boss was adament I still had to keep those 3 days for christmas and could not take them as holiday.
ACAS has advised this to be untrue and that all 25 days can be taken as holiday when I chose to take them as I will be on Maternity leave over Christmas.
They have also advised because my contact states I get Statutory Holidays that any bank holidays occuring while I am on Maternity leave should be added as extra days to my holiday entitlement.
They have also advised me because of how Christmas falls this year (2011) there will be 2 extra Bank Holidays - which should also be added on to my Holiday entitlement!
If you are unsure or just curious that you are getting to right ammount of holiday/leave please contact them for advice http://www.acas.org.uk telephone number is on the site.
