Some do adapt accrual while some adapt the yearly leave given to their employees, setting up their leaves etc.

Well your partner should review about their companies' leave type - if it is accrual or the other way.

If it is accrual then you cannot do anything since it was a company policy about taking leave - earn your leave monthly as it says.

But if it was a leave year then the company should pay your partner of the missing money and that if your partner has already planned your two week holiday provided that the company was well informed about it.

That wouldn't work at all would it as you do not accrue a whole years holiday untill week 52 and by then it's too late to take it.

My partner and I have just got back from a two week holiday. She has just been paid but is missing some money. She has been told it's because she has not accrued enough leave yet this year to cover the holiday. She has been with the company 6 years. I've just had a quick look and it appears they can only do the accrual thing in the first year

Can anyone advise on this please?

Thanks in advance.

She needs to go back and say that accrual is only relevant in year 1 so can she have her holiday pay please.

No it's not as that's how my holidays work with the number of years service changed. The only post here that is codswallop is YOUR post, you ignorant git. I was trying to help - you're only trying to be a rude ****.

If you quoted your holiday entitlement and you work 5 or more days a week then I suggest you sort out your employer regarding minimum holiday entitlement.

bottom line is if they have not paid then they still have the holiday to take.

great way to increase time off.

as has been pointed out a broken holiday policy

If she has not taken more than her annual leave entitlement so far, then this seems like a mistake by the company, and she needs to gently point this out to them. (Otherwise, are they expecting her to take these days as unpaid leave additional to her annual leave, or if she stays under her annual leave entitlement, when will they decide that she should be paid for the leave she's just taken.) I'd have a look at her staff handbook and contract of employment as well, that would probably cover it.
