Can someone find me something definitive on this? I don't really know where to look.
A junior manager at work says that a recent court ruling means that employees under English law are allowed to re-claim booked days of holiday if they fall sick enough on that day that they would have had to have time off work. Our HR clerk thinks this is obviously fair.
Our CEO is prepared to consider the facts, but neither the junior manager nor the clerk have provided any substantial evidence.
I had assumed that if you were ill on holiday, it was tough luck unless you were lucky enough to have a relevant clause in your contract.
