By the end of the year, all employees must be given their annual leave this year, according to the workforce company

In the final month of the year, the release of holidays may be more or less disruptive, and the problem of staff shortages due to staff shortages and the increased workload of the pre-Christmas peak can make it difficult to solve the problem. However, labor shortages should not be an obstacle to compliance, they added.

However, some provisions allow for the carry forward of leave to the following year. One of these is the age-related supplemental leave (which may be 1-10 days depending on age), which can be issued until the end of the following year. This gives the older workers greater room for maneuver, but the transfer of the additional leave must be agreed in writing by the parties in the current year.

If your employee starts his leave at the end of 2019, he can postpone his leave by 2020, which means he can postpone 5 working days to the future, meaning if someone goes on holiday on Monday, 30 December this year, You can relax until January 8, if you do not interrupt your vacation.

However, in the case of workers who commenced their employment on or after 1 October, the annual leave for the period in question may be used until 31 March of the following year.

In addition, according to Trenkwalder, the employee may have a reason that does not allow him to take leave, but within 60 days of the end of the leave, the leave must be started. As an example, a longer illness or a return from childhood was mentioned.

Trenkwalder believes that by the end of the year, it is timely for every company to check where their employees are taking their annual leave, simply because the employer is required to notify their employee 15 days in advance if they leave.

Unpaid leave cannot be redeemed for money, it is only possible in the event of termination of employment, he added.
