I started my current job in Jan 2019 and had a 3-month probation period in which I cannot take any time off — understandable. Then, it was already late April when I was able to take a few days off. However, only recently in May, when my 3-day July annual leave request got rejected, did I learn that there is an extended blackout period that would prevent me from taking leaves from essentially June to December. Let me explain:
In my department, there are two roles. Role A's blackout period (cannot take ALs) for second half of year is June to August; Role B's blackout period for second half of the year is September to December. Usually there are no problems, as each role has plenty of time to take ALs. However, I was hired as a dual role person (A+B) because... I'm more capable? I wasn't sure, but I surely wasn't expecting I would be **punished** for being more capable than others because now boss is telling me my blackout period is literally from June to December (A+B).
To complicate things, my company has this HR policy which states that unused leaves by the end of the year will be automatically forfeited — no rolling over to next year. And then there is this other complication that Role B requires employees to work on 8 public holidays, which are compensated as 8 extra Compensation Leaves — and I follow this protocol as well. In short, I have more leaves than I am allowed to take.
I relayed this concern to boss, and stated that it is a legal requirement that I be allowed to take my leaves. They then "mercifully" crafted out three weeks in which I am forced to take all my leaves: First week of June, Last week of August, and First week of September. Now technically they are being "legal" here as I am taking all my ALs, but it doesn't change the fact that it leaves a sour taste in my mouth. This is especially the case seeing how my colleagues who are just Role A or Role B have way more freedom in deciding when they want to take their holidays. Not to mention the fact that it's already nearly mid-May and I'm only told today that I have to take the first week of June off, which makes planning any trip a bit of a rush.
What can I do in this case? Is it a lost cause? Obviously, I would want to be treated fairly and be able to decide when I take my holidays. Thanks in advance.
