Angelo Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Look at your contract ffs.If you accrue holiday like 99% of the working population, you'll get a standard (roughly 4 weeks).This will accrue at about 1 days holiday per 2 weeks worked ROUGHLY.If you take more holiday than you have earned, they will dock your last paycheck with the amount you owe.If you plan to go on holiday, then come back, get paid, THEN QUIT, they cannot take the money as they have obviously already paid you.But if you plan to do it legitimately, you will owe the money and it will be taken from your paycheck.

JLovely Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Well when my manager left he left couple weeks early cos he was owed holiday, so I guess you can but Im pretty sure you gotta hand in your notice first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cookie Monster Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Look at your contract ffs.If you accrue holiday like 99% of the working population, you'll get a standard (roughly 4 weeks).This will accrue at about 1 days holiday per 2 weeks worked ROUGHLY.If you take more holiday than you have earned, they will dock your last paycheck with the amount you owe.If you plan to go on holiday, then come back, get paid, THEN QUIT, they cannot take the money as they have obviously already paid you.But if you plan to do it legitimately, you will owe the money and it will be taken from your paycheck.This is the right answer. This is one of the reasons that most companies require you to work a week/two weeks/a month-in-hand. If you quit after using too many of your holidays your final payment would be minus the days holiday you owe them, in theory. Whether or not they bother is a different matter. You may get away with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djbmc Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 dunno, it's a toughie, the chain of pubs i usd to work for would grant u holiday pay in advance but if u left before you earned it, they would ask for it back and depending on how much it was/how much u earned a visit from the bouncers, supposedly.

Icey Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 holiday is assigned on a pro -rata basis for most companies that basically means that say ur holiday for the year is 24 days (cant member wat legal minimum is) it will be assigned 2 days per month....based on that calculation u have 5days (we r only half way into march)if u work ur notice you'll have the months pay but you are entitled to be paid the full holiday allowence, which by that stage will be 6 days... so it makes more economical sense to work the notice and b paid the holiday....in the event u were to take two weeks holiday, and didn't come back to work out the days they so kindly gave u (which wld take u till end of may) they will deduct the money from your final wages, or in the even t that u had already been paid they will therefore not have to pay for the holiday you taken source : one employment law book i have laying around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
