Do Not Let Sickness Spoil Your Jordan Vacations

By Catherine Cole


Now that the peak holiday season is over, many UK employers will be breathing a sigh of relief. Holidays can cause them a great deal of stress for a variety of reasons, not least because of the legal confusion around the interplay between jordan vacations and sickness absence.

That all makes sense doesn't it? Plus, when we have a pet friendly rental we don't have to worry about how someone else is looking after our much-loved pet, have we done the right thing, are they happy without us, are they too happy without us, will they have the strop when we get back, will they be OK when we get back. Also, we don't have to spend a fortune for them to be looked after, or worry about who is looking after them.

However, the legal position regarding the interface between sickness and holidays has been muddled for some time, which is not helpful to employers. Issues can arise both when a person falls ill before or during their holidays, and when somebody who is off sick for a long time wishes either to take a holiday or carry forward their unused holiday entitlement to the following year.

So have a good think before you go, what do you need on your pet holiday, you can always buy anything you have forgotten, but who needs that extra expense? Most pet-friendly rentals will insist that you have something for your pet to sleep on or in, in the case of dogs a blanket or basket. It is good to take food and water bowls, especially if your pet is used to them.

If you are quite adventurous, you could even book time off work, pack your suitcase and head down to your local travel agent or go online and see what cheap holidays there are which depart in the next few days. Doing this can get you some amazing discounts - but you need to be ready to go anywhere in the world as there is no saying which cheap holidays will be available. So if you are looking for a particular type of holiday, this might not be the best option for you.

To avoid creating a malingerer's charter, these situations should be thought through and covered in your Absence from Work policy. Making it up as you go along, or waiting until the situation has arisen before giving it some thought, is never good employment practice.

And when the person comes back, a Return to Work interview will be helpful to get a fuller explanation of what has happened, to ensure that the outcome is fair and appropriate for both the employer and the employee concerned.

Look after your pet-friendly rental home, make sure that your pet doesn't cause any damage. You will certainly be charged for any damage you pet causes, increasing your pet-friendly holiday costs, but more importantly, we don't want to put holiday owners off providing pet friendly holidays, or there will become less available for us to us.
