HOLIDAY FLEXIBILITY ARRANGEMENTS
FOR 2005

Under the holiday flexibility arrangements, staff may choose to work on Maundy Thursday (24th March 2005), Good Friday (25th March 2005) and/or the day following Ascension (6th May 2005). These are days when the Commission’s offices will remain open.

According to the choice made, one, two or three days will be added to their annual leave entitlement.

Officials wishing to work these days should submit their requests at least three weeks in advance, via their Head of Unit, to the Head of Human Resources of their Directorate-General/Service/Office. The Head of Human Resources will then follow up these requests after taking account of the actual needs of the agent’s Unit.

Each Unit will be responsible for monitoring the presence of staff on these dates and will, by 31/07/2005 at the latest, send a list of the relevant members of staff to the Head of Human Resources of their Directorate-General/Service/Office. The list will contain the names, personnel numbers and the dates concerned, and will also specify whether half days or full days were worked.

The Commission reserves the right to modify the decisions, should the needs of service so require.
