Employment Law Summary Dismissal and Holiday Pay

Your employee behaves so badly that you dismiss outright

You do not want to pay him accrued holiday pay

The contract says you do not have to! Good!

No! Such a clause is in breach of the Working Time Regulations, which say that accrued holiday pay must be paid irrespective of the reason for the termination.

Change your contract. Provide that on summary dismissal, holidays will be paid for but at the rate of 1 pound per day
