Holidays.


 

How to request the holidays?

 

According to the internal policy of the company, all vacation requests must be made through the M4.

 

As the M4 will not send a confirmation of the vacation request, we advise that at the same time you send an email to the person responsible for the approval of the organization of the vacation indicating that a vacation request has been delivered in the M4 from that date to that date and request that the person respond within the following seven days at the latest. In this way, there is documentation about the request and when it is done.

 

We must remember that the enjoyment of vacations always must be by mutual agreement, not only according to our agreement, but also according to the workers' statute. As the M4 will send the approval or denial of vacation requests without indications about the content, we advise that you always ask for a confirmation by email with the information about what has been approved or denied so that there is proof in writing and that there are no doubts.

 

How to cancel the request?

 

As the enjoyment of the holidays must be by mutual agreement, the same applies in case of cancellation. The cancellation must be done through the M4 page and the company has to approve the cancellation.

As the M4 page will not send a confirmation of the cancellation of the vacation, we advise that at the same time you send an email to the person responsible for the approval of the organization of the vacation indicating that a request for cancellation of the vacation has been submitted in M4 from that date to that date and request that the person respond within the next seven days at the latest. In this way, there is documentation on the cancellation request and when it is done.

 

As the M4 will send the approval or denial of vacation cancellation requests without indications about the content, we advise that you always ask for a confirmation by email with the information about what has been approved or denied so that there is proof in written and that there are no doubts.

 

How to contest if the company denies the request?

 

The law explains how and when the decision to deny the company of vacation requests can be challenged. The process is the same if the company will assign vacations with a minimum of two months’ notice and if the employee does not agree with this assignment.

 

Law 36/2011, of October 10, regulating social jurisdiction, CHAPTER V. Holidays, art. 125:

 

Article 125. Fixing of vacations.

The procedure for the individual or plural setting of the date of enjoyment of the vacation will be governed by the following rules:

 

a) When the date is specified in a collective agreement, or by agreement between the employer and the workers' representatives, or has been set unilaterally by the former, the worker will have a period of twenty days, from the date on which he or she is aware of said date, to present the demand in the Social Court.

 

b) When the date of enjoyment of the vacation is not indicated, the claim must be submitted at least two months before the date of enjoyment intended by the worker.

 

c) If, once the process has started, the dates of enjoyment are set in accordance with the provisions of article 38 of the Consolidated Text of the Workers' Statute Law, the continuation of the procedure will not be interrupted.

 

d) When the object of the debate is about preferences attributed to certain workers, they must also be sued.

 

Article 126 explains the preference of the challenge.

Good cause for denial - who decides if cause is justified?

 

 

 

The internal policy of the company

 

Among other things, the company's internal policy includes the following:

 

All vacations must be requested through the Meta 4 employee portal at least two weeks in advance, preferably four weeks.

 

The person responsible for managing vacations must approve or deny them within a maximum period of 7 calendar days. If no response is received within this period, the worker must send a reminder email to the person in charge of this organization. If there is no response within 24 working hours, the holidays will be considered accepted.

 

Each project must agree on a clear criterion to determine the order of acceptance of the holidays and how many people could coincide at the same time in a period. This criterion must be published to the project or team so that they are aware of it.

 

In case of denying the vacation, the person in charge should provide a reasonable cause to the worker.
