What if the GM asks you for your recommendation? You're the
HR specialist, they pay you for your advice - you should take the lead on this and present them with the legislative facts and the extenuating circumstances surrounding this sick pet and the staff member concerned, with a recommendation - which should cover the implications to the business if granting paid personal leave on this occasions creates a precedent for other staff with pets. ie. what's the potential cost if all your staff suddenly have access to this special deal? 2 days additional paid leave per person per year adds 0.77% to your labour costs. What impact will this potential cost increase have on the margins of the business and the bottom line?
