As the Easter period comes to a close more and more employers are finding that employees are stuck in different parts of Europe or the world. We also have the unusual situation we do not know how long our air space will remain closed.

Employees stranded are incuring costs they were not expected, and employers are starting to find that key employees are missing. The question is though how are members of this group treating those employees, is it they have to take paid or unpaid holiday or is extra time being granted?

For us we are allowing a couple of extra days paid leave, and thereafter the employees will be expected to take additional holiday, either paid or unpaid.

What are others doing?
