that directly impinges on an organisation&#8217;s operations could spell disaster for any business, says Breda Scott of Derry-based human resources and employment law specialists HR Team.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If the right system for managing leave is not in place, the knock on effect can often impact directly on customers or clients and that can be a disaster for any organisation, regardless of size or scale,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>Her comments come after airline Ryanair\u00a0cancelled more than 80 flights on Sunday after admitting it had &#8220;messed up&#8221; the planning of its pilots&#8217; holidays.<\/p>\n<p>Ryanair said a change to its holiday year from April to March, to January to December, meant the company had to now allocate annual leave to pilots.<\/p>\n<p>Around 50 flights a day have been cancelled over next six weeks and more than 200,000 passengers could be affected by flight cancellations.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Scott continued: &#8220;Perhaps staff were not aware of the change to the holiday year or there was a delay in approval of leave but regardless, a backlog of leave is not good for any organisation &#8211; especially when it has such a devastating impact on customers.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This puts into sharp focus the need for organisations to work effectively to minimise the risk associated with ineffective leave management.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No matter what the size of the business, policy and procedure need to be in place to avoid a situation where too many members of staff need to take leave simultaneously.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Effective leave management will avoid a bottleneck at the end of year.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She said clear leave policy and procedure needs to be in place.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Companies need a concise and easy to understand holiday policy, one that is put in writing and is communicated to and understood by staff.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Similarly a process to allow whomever is responsible for managing leave requests, can easily identify when a problem may occur.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;An organisation&#8217;s policy may dictate that only two or three members of staff are on leave at any one time, certainly no more than would affect the organisation&#8217;s operations &#8211; and it should be implemented consistently and fairly,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>For
