  • urgent rolled up holiday pay

    Hi
    I have a meeting with HR tomorrow regarding my hourly wage. I'm pretty sure they are using rolled up holiday pay but not following the right guidelines. There is no breakdown within my terms of agreement or on my payslip and I'm sure they have no real records of me actually taking time off.


    What I would like to know is, if their not following the right guidelines what are the consequences for them?


    I'm a casual worker

    Thanks

      Hi & hello

      Not an expert on employment law but here's what ACAS have to say on the matter:

      What leave do casual workers get?
      If a member of staff works on a casual basis or very irregular hours, it is
      often easiest to calculate holiday entitlement that accrues as hours are
      worked.
      The holiday entitlement of 5.6 weeks is equivalent to 12.07 per cent of hours
      worked over a year.
      The 12.07 per cent figure is 5.6 weeks’ holiday, divided by 46.4 weeks (being
      52 weeks – 5.6 weeks). The 5.6 weeks are excluded from the calculation as
      the worker would not be at work during those 5.6 weeks in order to accrue
      annual leave.
      6 HolidAys And HolidAy pAy So if someone works 10 hours, they are entitled to 72.6 minutes paid holiday
      (12.07/100 x 10 = 1.21 hours = 72.63 minutes

        Hi brute03

        At this late stage, I would suggest that you don't sign anything, especially if it is detrimental to your rights under your existing contract of employment.
        If asked, say that you need time to digest the info.
        Then come back on here where we can give further and perhaps more informed opinions.
        This is a pretty complicated area of employment law (casual worker or zero-hour?, right to turn down work? etc), so really more info is needed.
