[Histonet] RE: time off

[Rathborne, Toni]

We have a Laboratory policy which states that holidays will be rotated. There is also a section which gives a limit to the amount of time an employee can have off during "peak vacation time". For example, our staff can only have a maximum of two weeks off during the peak summer time, and no more that 2 days off during the last two weeks of December. I personally have no problem with staff requesting time off early in the year, but I do ask that they discuss with their coworkers before giving me the request.

Those of you who are supervisors, how do you handle your co-workers asking for time off?  I have 2 employees that have asked off already (jan 3rd) for every day they want off for the entire year!  Do you grant them the days off since no one else has asked off yet, or tell them it's not fair to continuously get off around every holiday by asking off  5 - 12 months in advance?
