hi,
we had decided that OH was going to use 1 week of his holiday when the baby was born as he would be on "normal pay" compaired to a £50 loss if he took paternity leave.
now the problem arrises he only has 9days holiday remaining until jan 2010. we are booked to go away for oct half term week which will use 5days, leaving him 4 to use or loose.
his boss isnt being being helpful at moment and said he needs to know sooner rather than later about paternity leave (according to gov site we still have 5weeks). there isnt a union or anyone he can speak to as theres the boss him and 1 other guy.
does anyone know if OH can take his 4days holiday (at full pay) AND then a weeks paternity leave? or would this not be allowed.
many thanks.
on a plus note the paternity pay has gone up from £117 a week to £124!
