Just a tip if it might be you.
Employee's facing the axe, or in counsultation.
HR won't divulge but with the new concession year approaching if staff book a holiday using full concessions whilst in consultation but ensure booked before notice is served then the company will honour your holiday at whatever date it is booked for (within the concession year) but once notice is served the holiday has to be taken by end of notice period and concessions are pro-rata.
Presumably the form for leave granted has to be signed for interline first?
just something to try.
good luck all.
