Crossland v Corps of Commissionaires Management Ltd UKEAT/0014/10/LA
Appeal against the Employment Tribunal’s decision that, on termination of employment, the claimant was entitled to accrued holiday pay based on normal hours as opposed to actual hours worked. Further appeal against a ruling that the claimant was not entitled to holiday pay for days which were booked as holiday but which he actually worked. Appeal succeeded: although the WTR state that holiday pay is based upon contractual hours, and not contractual hours plus overtime, the claimant’s contract stated that payment would be based upon average hours worked. Also, the WTR expressly prohibits payment in lieu of holiday, apart from in certain situations, so the claimant was entitled to be paid on the days which were booked as holiday but that he actually worked.
