Claimant succeeds£2,841

Individual claims

Holiday Paysucceeded

The tribunal found that the respondent made an unauthorised deduction from the claimant's wages by failing to pay for holidays accrued but not taken on the date the claimant's employment ended. This was agreed by consent between the parties.

Facts

The claimant was a worker for Amazon UK Services Limited. When the claimant's employment ended, the respondent failed to pay for holidays that had accrued but had not been taken. The parties reached a consent agreement on the claim.

Decision

The tribunal found the holiday pay complaint well-founded by consent. The respondent was ordered to pay £2,841.16 including interest for the unauthorised deduction of wages in failing to pay accrued but untaken holiday pay.

Practical note

Employers must pay workers for all accrued but untaken holiday on termination, and failure to do so constitutes an unlawful deduction from wages.
