  1. Yeah 200 quid is pretty cheap but the original post was in 2006.
  2. Spoke to the CAB yesterday and was told to write to my employer stating my grievance and giving them 28 days to reply. The guy I spoke to said it sounded unlawful to him. So.... the letter will go this morning:) next stage according to the booklet is a meeting arranged by the employer and then application to the tribunal.
  3. My information (which I paid for) is that if I worked part of the year I get all the holiday due to me and this was based on case law. I could have taken all my leave at the start of the year and then booked sick... shame. As Bigmac versus says it's a shame it comes to this after 30 years but my employer couldn't even get my letter of thanks right. They wrote (after I prompted them) saying 'on your forthcoming retirement' when I'd been retired 3 weeks. Not a good advert for the fire brigade.
  4. I've pasted the most recent reply from my employer below. I've asked on numerous occassions for them to explain why I've only recieved part of my entitlement and all I get is because it's brigade policy. You were sent a breakdown of your leave by (EDIT)on the 4th September. This showed 10 days you have been paid for and 7 I decided not to, due to normal brigade practice. You have highlighted case law to show that you are entitled to payment for it all. I have read the case, and taken advice but my interpretation is that you are in fact only entitled to leave from 1st January 2007 until 8th May 2007 (when you last booked sick).You were sick from the 8th May until your retirement. The case law shows that you are not entitled to leave for this period because you didn't in fact return to work. This means that you owe the brigade one days pay back. I feel that this is now an end to the matter. I was allocated a set number of days leave for the year which ordinarily I would have taken but unfortunately I was sick. I love the line 10 days you have been paid for and 7 I decided not to
  5. Hi I ceased employment in September of this year when I reached 30 years service. I was allocated a number of days leave for the period January 1st to September 3rd when I retired. I took some of these days as holiday but was unable to take the rest because of illness. My employer agreed to pay me for 10 of these days but has decided they will not pay me for a further 7 outstanding days. I consulted a solicitor who quoted some case law to me which says that because I worked part of the year then I should be entitled to all my holiday pay but my employer still says no. Is the next move small claims court? Are there other avenues I should persue? Should I take the money and run?
