Hi Filipina,

first of all welcome to our community. So nice you found MyHandicap! 😀

Well, on the first sight it seems quite plausible to twitch work to another day when it is a holiday so you don't have to work that day. But as I am no lawyer I'm not absolutely sure about it. I'll forward your request to one of our experts. Please have a little patience.

Hello,
i have another problem again with my employer, im in vacation from Nov. 27- Dec.18. they grant my vacation but today they sent the news paper to our house for me to deliver but im in vacation, how can they do that? i did not distribute the news paper today since im in vacation, did i do the right thing or i really need to do it even if im in vacation?

Hello Tingkoyam,

did you get a written grant for your vacation? Maybe there is a misunderstanding or they simply forgot about it.
Did you contact your employer already to sort things out?

Hello Justin,

Yes they grant my vacation, and i have a letter from them about my vacation, we contacted them already about the Zeitung they deliver maybe by mistake, to take it back from our house.

Danke

Sehr geehrtes Forenmitglied,

Ihre Frage ist sehr nachvollziehbar und verständlich aber leider ebenso schwer zu beantworte. Es kommt auf die Vereinbarungen in Ihrem Arbeitsvertrag an. Grundsätzlich kann bei einem entsprechend offen formulierten Arbeitsvertrag der Arbeitgeber sein Direktionsrecht ausüben und auch bei betrieblichen Bedarf und oder Notwendigkeit - auch Ausnahmen anordnen. Es bedarf aber immer auch einer Berücksichtigung Ihrer Lage und Ihrer Interessen. Ohne Kenntnis von dem Inhalt Ihres Arbeitsvertrages lässt sich daher die Frage so nicht beantworten.

Ich rate dazu, dass sie im Rahmen einer Erstberatung einen Fachanwalt für Arbeitsrecht in Ihrer Nähe aufsuchen und mit diesem anhand ihres Vertrages und der konkreten Anweisung das weitere Vorgehen erörtern.
