Thats the problem with non union. (don't get me wrong...I am not for Unions in general) Yes, they can. Something simular happened to me at my job. Now, you could organize a 'strike' if everyone is in favor. The owners will take notice and might make a change. If you could get everyone together to complain you have a better chance to change it back. \n\nPower in numbers.

Everyone in the UK gets 20 days paid annual leave, or pro rata for part-timers to make it equal to full-time workers. Then each company decides how many extra days to give, i.e. if you work somewhere for 5 years you might get 3 more days off, so a total of 5.5 weeks per year.

not if you are voluntarily leaving a job.  you have had to be layed off only.

Absolutely not.  It's sad, but you have to play hardball in the job market.  If they want gaurantees, they should offer you a contract.  Employers never ask for a contract with you because they want the option to dump you the second it's inconvenient to have you around. The flip side of this is that you are fully within your rights to leave whenever you want.  You don't have to give two weeks notice either. That's the way the job market works.

Depending on the benefits package, the employee will have acrued so many days of sick pay. Usually sick pay is not available until after a full year of employment. When you list their deductions and credits on their paystub, include the 'sick time' in hours. For example, an employee makes 10 dollars an hour. If a full day of work is 8 hours, and they miss two days of work. Take 16(hours), multiplied by $10.00 (rate of pay) to reach $160.00 list that on their credits of their pay stub to make sure it is taxed. this way the employee can see how many hours of sick leave they have taken, and how it was put into their pay.

he has to give reasonable notice usually a month and a reason for doing so.\n\nif sick pay was agreed in his contract and he wasn't given notice it could constitute a breech of contract.\n\nhe needs to seek legal advice because he maybe able to argue his case. The bare minimum for holiday allowance in the UK is 15 days plus bank holidays, the employer can't go below this.

I don't think that there is a law, but most places of employment have a policy that states how many days you can be out before needing a note.  Generally if you are out more than 2 days and you are that sick, you should be going to the doctor anyway.  Most physicians have no problem giving patients a note for work.  Check out your employee hand book and it should have some sort of policy of sick time off.

Sorry, can't answer for churches specifically, but I can for corporate America as a whole... Much of this depends upon the company, the nature of the work, and what they feel they can get away with.\n\nFor many non-union jobs, it's common for a new employee to get 2 weeks of vacation with more offered after years 2-5. 4 weeks off is probably the most you could expect (unless you're working in Europe) but this would be unlikely for someone new to the organization. In addition to vacation, a typical company may offer you 3-5 sick days. From the company's perspective, they'd like to prevent employees from abusing those days and treating them as additional vacation days. However, if you don't abuse them (and the church has no reason to think that you are) it's not uncommon for people to exceed the allotted sick days under special circumstances. Your employer would probably rather you not infect the entire staff...

your employer has the right to determine when you may take your holiday, depending on how busy the workload is at different times of the year, etc. Even if you have already purchased tickets, and made reservations, it does not guarantee that you will be able to take the time off.

No, it is not right.  Sick time is a benefit that you should be able to use.  If it is a routine appointment (i.e. - physical, etc), they might ask you to reschedule if they are short staffed but sometimes that cannot be done because it could take months to get a new appointment.  Employers can ask for a doctor's note to verify that you actually had a doctor's appointment though to ensure sick time is not being used for vacation.\n\nTalk to your HR staff to find out the specific rules/procedures for sick time.  You may be able to fight this.

sounds like homework.  I've never heard of an employer being forced to allow an employee to resign by law.  Now if you mean were you don't show up to work for X days without calling in and your employer considers it a resignation that's a bit different.  Again it's not really law, but a policy issue.  Also most states are at will and thus no reason must be given to have an employee leave.

Here is the NC Department of Labor's most frequently asked questions site.  If you scroll down to page 3 read under the heading "Does an employer have to give his employee vacation time off with pay?"  Although the heading is misleading your answer is in that paragraph. The site is under sources:\n\nIt states it must be paid at termination unless the employer has a written forfeiture clause that explains how the earned vacation can be taken away.

Once the employee is taken off of workman's comp.  It is no longer the responsibility of employer to pay anything.  These Dr. appts. should be given to the employee with their benefit time.  Or loss of pay.  It is up to the boss to make new rules regulating time off with appropriate proof after so many, usually three times.  But that is up to the boss.  If you do not find a good answer then you can all ways call the U.S. Department of Labor at 1-866-487-9243 and ask them specifically.  It's a toll free number.

I don't believe your employer is able to send you home for being ill unless it is outlined in your employment contract.  If you have sick leave they may be able to send you home. I am not sure. But if they send you home I don't know if they could dock you pay.

Post above is correct.  FMLA requires an employer to give a cumulative total of 12 weeks in any rolling one year period.  You can get a personal medical leave for beyond 12 weeks (not due to bereavement or caring for a family member but only for your own medical issue), but your job is no longer protected under law.

In general if you are sent home for being sick, then you get paid for the part of the shift you worked, and get sick time for the part of the shift you did not work. If you job does not come with sick leave, then you would not get paid for the time off work.\n\nI tried to look in your state's law, but I did not find that it even mentions sick leave at all. Anything not found in the law, is left up to each employer's decision.
