[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm at a very small employer with 5 employees and no HR department. One of my direct reports is scheduled to return from maternity leave soon and she just announced that she's taking several additional weeks using her accrued vacation. She had a fully paid 12 week leave which was difficult for us given our small size and the additional weeks are a burden to the office and other employees who have been covering for her.  On one hand I understand that she is entitled to use vacation days but on the other it seems like the wrong time to do so.  Can you help me with the words to explain this to her?[/quote]

It sounds like she was under the impression that if she wanted more time off  after maternity leave ended she could just use her vacation days by didn't need to plan for in advance to do this.  Before getting in touch with her, it might be a good idea to check with the owner or other employees if this has been a practice in the past or if perhaps the owner may have told her it was ok.  Then reach out to her[/quote]
