I have been working for a company for just over a year now, starting in September 2016 and for the first year was given my paid annual leave with no fuss. In September 2017 it relaunched as a new company, but still with the same management etc. When I signed the new contract, I was told that I did have paid annual leave, albeit very briefly mentioned.
I requested 7 days' holiday in August for the beginning of October and took it off under the presumption it was a part of my paid annual leave. As we are at the end of October I was expecting a full months' salary, but was told yesterday that in fact I don't have any paid annual leave and that I only get the paid annual leave AFTER I have completed 12 months with the "new" company.
I looked at my contract at it states that;
"You shall be entitled to fourteen working days' annual leave for each 12 calendar months."
As a student lawyer, I would say that this doesn't agree with what I have just been told. Should I bring this up?
Thanks
