Add Comment Question: I work in BC and am entitled to 2 weeks holiday however, I am wanting to go on a 3 week vacation. My employer has told me that I cannot take 3 weeks holiday because I only have 2 weeks and that I cant use unpaid days. My employer has proceeded to tell me that I will be able to take it if I resign and then they will rehire me once vacation is finished. If I decide to go on the vacation anyways without approval would that be job abandonment? Answer: if you went on the vacation without authorization it would be insubordination and could lead to the termination of your employment for cause.
