Claimant v Coro Energy PLC
Outcome
Individual claims
The tribunal found that the respondent made an unauthorised deduction from the claimant's wages by failing to pay the claimant for 15 days of holidays accrued but not taken on the date the claimant's employment ended. The claim was well-founded and the respondent was ordered to pay the full amount claimed.
Facts
Mr Carrington brought a claim for unpaid holiday pay against his former employer, Coro Energy PLC. He alleged that upon termination of his employment, the respondent failed to pay him for 15 days of accrued but untaken holiday. The respondent was represented by its Financial Controller Paul Mckay, while the claimant represented himself. The hearing took place by video.
Decision
Employment Judge Buzzard found the claim well-founded and ruled that the respondent made an unauthorised deduction from wages by failing to pay for accrued but untaken holiday. The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay £8,475, calculated as 15 days at a daily rate of £565.
Practical note
Employers must pay employees for all accrued but untaken holiday upon termination of employment or face liability for unlawful deduction of wages.
