(b) If an application to cash out annual leave is approved, the employer will provide to the employee written confirmation of such approval. The existing arrangements for making application for annual leave would continue in the present form. (c) To avoid doubt, any agreement to cash-out annual leave in accordance with this clause can only be initiated by the employee.
