I work for a big organisation, doing maintenance, my manager and I are full time and there's two casuals.
My manager and I both put in leave and it overlaps one day, the casuals work three days a week (one barely shows up, 3 days in the past 6 weeks)
I got denied my leave cause none would be on site that day if I was off cause managers leave got approved.
I asked a casual if he could cover my shift, he was available, I then asked my manager if that works, he said it's fine, then the business manager says that it will affect the budget cause it's not the casuals day, the only way I can have the day off and have the casual cover me is I take leave with no pay…
I'm now paying the casual to cover me…
The company is worth…. 16.8 billion dollars
