Annual Leave Purchase is simply a way of buying more annual leave.
Imagine being able to take extra time off work for long weekends away, more time off with the children or even a much dreamed of long haul trip that your current allowance wouldn't enable you to take.
You will need to plan ahead when making your choice as once you buy the additional leave you can't sell them back even if you have a lifestyle change your choices will apply till the start of the following holiday year.
Normal departmental holiday booking procedures will apply but your Line Manager will do their best to accommodate your request.
Please note:
If you have an LGPS membership before 31/03/2014 and purchase additional annual leave in the three years before you leave the pension scheme in the future, resulting in a reduction in your salary, the reduced salary may also affect any protected final salary benefits you have accrued prior to 31/03/14.
