I am currently on maternity leave, which started in Nov 2013. I used up all my 2013 annual leave entitlement before I started ML, so I have been accruing 2014 leave whilst I've been off. I get 24 days total for the year. I intend to return to work full-time on 1st Sept, but had planned to take a few days hol each week for the first 2 or 3 weeks (i.e. work a 2,3 or 4 day week for the first 3 weeks to ease myself and the children into the new routine!). However, my manager has requested that I take 2 weeks annual leave as soon as I return (i.e. actually not go back in to work until 15th Sept) as she thinks I have too much AL to fit in to the remaining part of the year, so she wants 2 weeks used up before I return to the office. I don't want to do this as I want to save some days for Xmas, random days off and unexpected childcare crises! Also we can carry over 5 days which I would like to do. Can she make me take holiday when I don't want to? Many thanks.
