Is it possible to make it backdated?
When might an employer need to issue a retroactive leave order?
This is possible in the case when the start date is determined by the schedule, and for some reason the employee did not go to rest on that day.
In this case, the employer, upon detection of this circumstance, issues an order retroactively in order to comply with the requirements of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. However, this is not correct.
You cannot apply for another leave retroactively.
If the employee did not manage to leave on time specified in the schedule, then the vacation period should be transferred to another date.
To do this, the employee needs to write a statement and the employer needs to issue a transfer order.
Vacation dates will be changed in the schedule to others, and the employee can be sent on vacation in accordance with the schedule. In this case, there will be no need to prepare documents retroactively.
Agree on vacation dates
For each year worked, the employee is entitled to 28 days of vacation. Moreover, it is necessary to provide vacation, even if he is ready to work without rest. Not sending an employee on vacation for longer than two years is a violation for which you can be fined.
An employee can rest for all 28 days at once or divide the vacation into several parts, one of which must be at least 2 weeks.
Vacation is counted in calendar days, but does not include non-working holidays. If a holiday falls during the vacation period, it is extended by that day. For example, an employee goes on vacation for 14 days from March 1. March 8 is a non-working holiday and is not included in vacation. Therefore, the employee will return to work on March 16.
By law, vacation dates are determined according to a schedule that must be approved annually before December 17 for the year ahead. If you have few employees, then this document may only be needed during verification. Much more often, in small firms, vacation dates are determined during the year at the request of the employee, and a vacation schedule is drawn up to comply with formalities.
