    Hi all,
    How did you explain to your boss about your operation? I don’t really want anyone to know and have no annual leave left to take a week off!

    Check your company policy but usually a voluntary op won’t be covered under sick leave so they might put you down as unpaid leave if you don’t book holiday xx

    I told them as they’ll notice when I get back anyway, so I dealt with the q&a and reactions first. Took annual leave

    At my company voluntary ops aren’t covered under sickness leave so I took mine as AL, but had the option to take it unpaid 🙂 But check with your HR department!
