I can understand that reason being given if you were asking for weeks off, but it sounds like a resourcing issue to me if it’s happened to you over and over. You can’t be expected to know when you need a few days of leave several months in advance.
100% a staffing issue. We’re chronically stretched
It’s become an issue since they changed up the leave booking system too, It used to be reviewed by a person, now it’s automated…and the leave-bot says no to things
Automating leave requests is ridiculous. It sounds like once an arbitrary number of staff are on leave on any given day, you get rejected? A business that’s decided to run on lean staff numbers is not your problem when it comes to asking for three days of leave.
They say that there’s no leave available. Too many other people want it around that time.
But like…why is a month’s warning not long enough to avoid that? How quick off the mark do I need to be?
