Contract

if an employee entiteld for 30 paid days vacation per year, (after working 11 months) , and he/she would like to take the vacation before the time what is the procedure?
what if the employee ask more than 30 days? for example 60 days, do we have to extend the contract for another 30 days?
e.g(Dr. Luis contract started 02/02/2007 it will end after one year 02/02/2008 and he asked for 60 days vacation, the 30 unpaid days will be added to the contract which means will end on 02/03/2008??

Surely if he is entitled to 30 days leave and asks for 60 then you just say no to the extra? You don't have to extend his contract!

If you get 30 days annual leave entitlement per year, then you earn 2.5 days for every month worked.

Say you start working for the employer on 1st January and you wish to take 10 days holiday from 1st April, then you will have only earned 7.5 days, clearly not enough to be taking the 10 days you want to but employers will honour those days provided you haven't given them reason to think you will not be with them long enough to earn those 2.5 days back from them.

Am I making sense so far?

If you wanted to to take more holidays than what your contract stipulates you are allowed, then you will be expected to take the surplus days unpaid, regardless whether you are taying with them another year or not.

Extending the contract by 30 days would not work as you'll have only earned 2.5 of those extra days taken. You'd have to extend the contract by a year and not take any holidays during that year.

Surely if the contract ends and isn't being renewed then his contract ends in 02/02/08 as normal and he has as much unpaid time off as he likes?

Did his contract allow for holiday to be taken dureing the year or as payment on completion of the contract?
