Burnham Resources Reports: Northern Ireland Court Rules Overtime Included in Holiday Pay
Outplacement consultancy releases news article about a major judgement from the Northern Ireland Court of Appeal ruling about voluntary overtime.
Egham, Surrey, August 7, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Burnham Resources, a recruitment and outplacement agency specialising in payroll jobs and payroll vacancies based in Egham, Surrey, has recently released a report about an important judgement from the Northern Ireland Court of Appeal that ruled that there is no reason in principle why voluntary overtime should be excluded from holiday pay.
The decision was the result of a challenge brought by employee Robert Patterson against his place of employment, Castlereagh Borough Council, over alleged unlawful deductions of wages. Mr Patterson’s claim was made on the basis that the calculation of his holiday pay should have included pay for overtime hours that he regularly voluntarily worked.

Burnham Resources hopes that this news will help businesses set up Policies for overtime and holiday pay which can vary from company to company and in choosing the right payroll and HR staff that can help them to do this and ensure any errors are corrected.
