Hi Everyone
I have had a laugh today, One of our cleaners are leaving, and she asked me what holidays she is entitled to, Obviously its on pro rata and accumulates through the holiday year. This was before i knew she was leaving, so i told her the amount to end of her holiday year.
She then hands in her notice and still expects to get the same holidays that she should have had if she stayed til end of holiday year. it was 6 days left, but i had to recalulate and its now 4 hours !
She so isnt happy, and has told my staff that shes taking this matter further and complaining to TRADING STANDARDS.
Now, call me daft if you will, but i thought trading standards dealt with consumer regulations, not employment laws.
She is also complaining about i dont pay the right amount of mileage and that for her 1.7 or whatever engine she should receive 42p per mile or something. She is completely unaware that she needs to fill on a p87 to get tax relief for the bit of mileage i dont pay, and i cant get an year ending 2008 form yet to give her. I think im quite generous paying 20p per mile plus passenger rates aswell. Even if its not compulsory.
I feel like laughing in her face cos its so rediculous, but here she is having me doubt myself. I'm 99% sure im in the right here, but what would you guys do in my situation?
Thanks
Lisa
