To calculate your left annual leave, start by checking your company's policy on how leave accrual works. Typically, you'll accrue a certain number of leave hours per pay period. Subtract any leave you've already taken from your total annual entitlement to determine what's left. For example, if you accrue 10 hours of leave per month and haven't taken any in 6 months, you'd have 60 hours. Remember to adjust for any carry-over from the previous year if your company allows it.
