Employees have won a ground breaking case at the Employment Appeal Tribunal to include overtime in holiday pay. This means all indivuals working voluntary overtime could claim for additional holiday pay - currently, only basic pay counts when calculating holiday pay. |

I think many companies already take overtime into account when calculating holiday pay, I am pretty sure all the companies I have worked for did this - one thing I am sure about, is that this judgement, will be used by David Cameron, George Osborne, and Iain Duncan Smith as another club to bash the unions with. |

Yes - provided that the working of overtime was mandatory, expected, included in the vacancy notice, or by any other means such that it was really part of the basic wage. |

Now I used to work overtime every week and I am all for getting back some of the things we used to take for granted. Like teabreaks, the "biscuit" lady going around the office with her trolley, and NEVER ringing an employee at home when sick or on holiday. |

SSP is about £87 pw after 4 days that's about as much use as a chocolate fire guard |

SSP is a backstop it is not meant as a substitute for insurance. |

Years ago in Oz, this right was fought for....... and everybody (even those who didn't regularly work overtime) got leave "loading" for holiday pay ~ 17.5% of their salary. |

No - overtime is a way of boosting your pay (irrespective of how much or little your earn) |

I do think holiday pay should be calculated on all hours worked, irresepective of whether these are contracted hours or overtime hours. |
