When the world came apart, where were you?
I'm after some advice.
In November I booked 2 weeks holiday leave as I was due to have an planned surgical operation and 2 weeks should have been enough for me to recuperate and return to work.
However, there were complications during surgery and I've been off work since then.
The organisation I work for (or my line management - I cannot determine which) has decided that my 2 weeks holiday has to be taken as sick leave. But I do not want that, I want to use two weeks of my holiday entitlement.
My question is: can my employer force me to take those two weeks off as sick leave?
Thanks
