Extend Holiday Carryover Timeframe to 18 Months in Line with Legislation

We request an enhancement to the holiday carryover functionality to allow for a maximum carryover period of up to 18 months. Current system limitations only permit a 12-month carryover window, which is not compliant with legislation concerning long-term sickness. According to statutory guidelines, employees must be allowed up to 18 months to use holiday entitlements accrued during a period of long-term sickness absence.

This adjustment would ensure legal compliance and reduce the need for manual workarounds or exceptions outside the system.

Business Impact:

• Ensures compliance with statutory holiday entitlement regulations

• Reduces manual intervention and administrative burden

• Improves employee experience by accurately reflecting entitlements in the system

We kindly request that the maximum carryover period be configurable up to 18 months to accommodate these requirements.
