Which has better holiday entitlement - random or fixed roster?
I'm trying to understand the pros and cons of the different types of roster. Obviously with a fixed roster like 5-on/4-off you could take 5 days holiday and get 13 days off. But how does it work with Random rosters? Presumably by the time you get your roster it's too late to book holiday? And if you book months in advance, surely you'll be using up holiday days when they would have given you the day off anyway? (To get 13 days off you'd use 13 holiday days instead of 5)
