[QUOTE="Cows 'n grass, post: 7030860, member: 1711"] How do others deal with holidays? I have four FTE now, all on 30 days holiday, all working 11/3 or similar. Everyone works every second weekend. I've already asked them not to take take holiday through calving, does anyone ask employees not to take holiday over their working weekends? It's just impossible to find weekend milking cover now, I realize that this is my issue not my employees but it means I cover for everyone as well as not taking any time off through calving or mating periods, consequently I will work 42 out of 52 weekends in 2020 which leaves me with a very pi$$ed off wife. I know there are plenty of people who take no time off and work 365 but I'm not prepared to do that. How do other manage staffing through the year? [/QUOTE]
