EXCESSIVE ANNUAL LEAVE: REQUEST BY EMPLOYEE FOR LEAVE Sample Clauses

EXCESSIVE ANNUAL LEAVE: REQUEST BY EMPLOYEE FOR LEAVE. If an employee has genuinely tried to reach agreement with an employer under Clause 33.8 but agreement is not reached (including because the employer refuses to confer), the employee may give a written notice to the employer requesting to take one or more periods of paid annual leave. However, an employee may only give a notice to the employer under this clause if: (i) the employee has had an excessive leave accrual for more than 6 months at the time of giving the notice; and (ii) the employee has not been given a direction under Clause 33.8 that, when any other paid annual leave arrangements (whether otherwise agreed by the employer and employee) are taken into account, would eliminate the employee’s excessive leave accrual. A notice given by an employee under this clause must not: (i) if granted, result in the employee’s remaining accrued entitlement to paid annual leave being at any time less than 6 weeks when any other paid annual leave arrangements (whether made under the Clause or otherwise agreed by the employer and employee) are taken into account; or (ii) provide for the employee to take any period of paid annual leave of less than one week; or (iii) provide for the employee to take a period of paid annual leave beginning less than 4 weeks, or more than 12 months, after the notice is given; or (iv) be inconsistent with any leave arrangement agreed by the employer and employee. An employee is not entitled to request by a notice under this clause more than 4 weeks paid annual leave (or 5 weeks paid annual leave for a shift worker, as defined by this Agreement) in any period of 12 months. The employer must grant paid annual leave requested by a notice under the clause.
