Hi all

I'm just curious where I stand with a bit of an issue I have.

I work for a well known motor factor, in a "superhub" with over 70 employees working in different departments, 6 days a week with regular hours, and we are entitled to 20 days holiday a year. But, if you don't take the holiday, we lose it and they won't pay us for it either.
The issue is, it is extremely difficult to get time off, and more often or not, holiday requests are denied.
My week off I have just started, I had to wait 2 months for it, as they couldn't let me have the time off.
With the year quickly passing by, time is running out, and I still have 10 days left, but i'm just curious if there is anything I can do if they continue to refuse to allow me to take my holiday allowance?

Cheers
 
The only reason they deny it, so far anyway, is due to too many people being off, but the issue is even though there are 70 plus people, they are all in different departments and so can't necessarily cover if any of us are off.
But all of us have difficulties getting time off due to them not being able to cover us, or too many people off.

Cheers
