I have an employee who booked a holiday in advance, he then became very ill two weeks before he was due to go on holiday and provided doctor's and hospital certificates to back this up. Were do I stand in regards to his holidays, does he get them back because he was sick at the time.

Thanks Andy

Frankly I am surprised you are even asking - can you give a good reason why you would not consider giving him his holiday back!! Does not sound to me as if he had much fun being very ill!

Depending on his illness, you may also want to look at reducing his workload and introducing other support mechanisms.
