For many years official guidance from ACAS and other reputable sources stated that term time only and sessional workers could receive holiday entitlement pro- rated. The ready reckoner of 12.07% for such atypical contracts was common practice. The Harpur Trust v Brazel has created uncertainty and dispute for a number of years now but we all anticipated stability with the final decision. Now the Supreme Court has made its findings, organisations are facing claims for historic pay and are wrestling with how to calculate pay going forward.
In this session Julie and David will look at;
- The decision in Harpur Trust v Brazel
- What types of scenario it covers;
- Some handy tips on how you could calculate leave.
