Snow difficulties and your rights
- Published
A heavy band of snow has been making its way across the UK, leaving some schools shut and causing travel disruption.
So what are your rights if you can't get into work?
I couldn't get to work because of the snow. Can my boss dock my pay?
Can my employer force me to take a day off as holiday?
What about unpaid leave?
My workplace is closed. What then?
I can't come to work, not because of travel problems, but because my children's school is closed and I can't get childcare at short notice.
My boss is really unhappy and I feel under pressure to try to get in.
