One guy I flew with lately came up with an easy to be implimented plan. allowing for a 6/2 working pattern without changing the current leave day allocations.
Basically you devide the year in 6 periods of 2 months
We have 42 days of leave. 42/6 is 7 days
We can paste 4 days off/month together. Do this once at the end of month 1 and once at the beginning of month 2, and this for 6 periods
This creates a period of 8 days off plus 7 days leave = 15 days
So you create 6 periods of 6 weeks on/2 weeks off
The perfect commuting pattern, as used all over the world, without changing existing rules....
