Hi Everyone...
I've been working for my new company for almost 2 months now. Their sick leave policy is LEAVE WITHOUT pay for the first 3 months... I've noticed that I do accrue annual leave on my payslip...
I recently had to take a day of work, so I figured I will take annual leave for that day, so that I get paid because I dont have sick leave...
I was told today by HR that any days of during my first 3 months is seen as leave without pay... This means that even though I do accrue annual leave, I still can't use them during the first 3 months...
Is this how it works in Australia, or am I just working for a silly company?
