Employer Leave Denial Compensation

Summary

The Working Time Regulations (WTR) in England provide employees with annual leave entitlements, including additional leave under Regulation 13A. Regulation 30 allows for compensation if these rights are infringed. However, Regulation 13A(6) specifies that additional leave cannot be replaced by payment in lieu, except upon termination. Recent case law clarifies that additional leave does not carry the same compensation rights as statutory leave. If your employer denies you days in lieu for working on bank holidays, you may have a valid claim under Regulation 30. Consider recent UK case laws for further guidance on compensation and carryover rights.

you can tell me the dfference
Sure! Here's a brief explanation:
- Regulation 13A: This provides employees with additional annual leave entitlement.
- Regulation *: This allows employees to seek compensation if their rights under the Working Time Regulations (including Regulation 13A) are infringed.
If your additional leave under Regulation 13A was denied entirely, you could seek compensation under Regulation *.
what means entirely? like all the * bank holidays each year?
When referring to "entirely" in this context, it means that your employer has completely denied your additional leave entitlement under Regulation 13A, without allowing you to take any of it. This does not necessarily refer to bank holidays but rather the additional leave days you are entitled to beyond the standard leave.
Is your employer not allowing you to take any of your additional leave days?
so you are talking about the * bank holidays that are additional to the * weeks?
Case Rating: *
Under the Working Time Regulations in England, the * bank holidays are often considered part of the *.* weeks of annual leave entitlement. This includes the standard * weeks (20 days) plus the additional 8 days for bank holidays.
Is your employer denying you all * bank holidays in addition to the standard * weeks of leave?
the * weeks were always given. But bank holidays employer requires employees to be worked when asked, and this gives rise to days in lieu.
Case Rating: *
Under the Working Time Regulations (WTR) in England:
- Regulation 13A provides for additional annual leave.
- Regulation * offers compensation if rights under WTR are infringed.
Your employer can require you to work on bank holidays, giving you days in lieu.
Are you not being allowed to take the days in lieu?
yes
Case Rating: *
It seems you might have a valid case for compensation under Regulation * if you are not being allowed to take days in lieu for working on bank holidays.
Would you like to be connected to local lawyers who can better assist you with your case?
no. How does it work wtr30 along wtr13a6? Or is it a difference between payment in lieu and compesation.
Case Rating: *
Under the Working Time Regulations (WTR) in England:
- Regulation 13A: Provides for additional annual leave.
- Regulation 13A(*): Specifies that additional leave cannot be replaced by payment in lieu, except on termination of employment.
- Regulation *: Allows employees to seek compensation if their rights under the WTR are infringed.
Would you like more information on how compensation under Regulation * works?
yes, 13a6 does not block regulation * in any way/
Case Rating: *
Understanding Compensation under Regulation *
- Regulation 13A: Provides additional annual leave.
- Regulation 13A(*): States additional leave can't be replaced by payment in lieu, except on employment termination.
- Regulation *: Allows employees to seek compensation if their rights under WTR are infringed, including denied additional leave.
Would you like more detailed information on the compensation process under Regulation *?
when was this change made? or since when failure to be given additional holiday can be compensated? Is this valid for salaried employees that have the *.* weeks included in the salary? or the fact that employee seems to be paid although worked extra days instead of having days in lieu, restricts wtr30 compensation?
Case Rating: *
The right to compensation under Regulation * for denied additional leave has been part of the Working Time Regulations since they were introduced in *.
- Regulation 13A(*): Additional leave cannot be replaced by payment in lieu, except on termination of employment.
- Regulation *: Allows employees to seek compensation if their rights under WTR are infringed.
To better understand your situation:
- Are you a salaried employee with *.* weeks of leave included in your salary?
yes
Case Rating: *
Since you've confirmed that you are a salaried employee with *.* weeks of leave included in your salary, it seems like you might have a valid claim under Regulation * if your employer is not allowing you to take days in lieu.
If you have further specific questions about your situation, feel free to ask!
how is safer to claim them? Unlawful deduction of wages or breach of wtr?
Case Rating: *
You could consider claiming under both:
- Unlawful Deduction of Wages: If you are not compensated for the days in lieu you worked, this might apply.
- Breach of WTR (Regulation *): If your rights under the Working Time Regulations are infringed, such as not being allowed to take days in lieu.
Which approach are you leaning towards?
both have backstops, or just deductions?
Case Rating: *
Both claims have backstops, which means there are time limits within which you can make these claims.
- Unlawful Deduction of Wages: Typically, claims must be made within 3 months of the last deduction.
- Breach of WTR (Regulation *): Claims must generally be made within 3 months of the infringement.
Would you like more detailed information on either of these claims?
if contract was witholded by employer and you receive it after many year, let say now, and employer gives me the days in lieu for this year but refuses to make chnges for previous years, if I lodge a claim in the next *-3 months. Is a wtr30 claim with succesful prospects of succes?
Case Rating: *
A claim under Regulation * for previous years may face challenges due to time limits (typically 3 months from the infringement). However, if you can argue that the withholding of the contract delayed your ability to make the claim, it might strengthen your case.
Would you like more detailed information on how to proceed with a claim under Regulation *?
check this and spot the legal errors: *. In Smith v Pimlico Plumbers the Court of Appeal set out in appendix with updated and fully reinterpreted wording of parts of the WTR which include in relation to regulation * the following: (*) Where in any leave year an employer (i) fails to recognise a worker's right to paid annual leave and (ii) cannot show that it provides a facility for the taking of such leave, the worker shall be entitled to carry forward any leave which is taken but unpaid, and/or which is not taken, into subsequent leave years. *. It did not make amendments to additional leave under regulation 13A.
Case Rating: *
Here are the legal points to note:
- Regulation 13A provides for additional annual leave.
- Regulation * allows employees to seek compensation for infringements of these rights.
- Regulation 13A(*) states that additional leave cannot be replaced by payment in lieu, except on termination of employment.
- Claims for unpaid leave typically need to be made within 3 months of the infringement.
Your query about Smith v Pimlico Plumbers seems legally accurate. The employer's failure to recognize paid annual leave can entitle workers to carry forward leave.
Would you like more detailed information on either of these claims?
and this: *. I do not consider that the respondent disputes that the claimant was only paid for 24 days leave before *. Even if the respondent did dispute that, it has not provided evidence to support the contention that it paid more than 24 days of annual leave prior to *. *. I have found that the claimant took 24 days of leave in all his holiday years which means that he has taken his entitlement under regulation * of the WTR. The claimant’s claims in respect of additional leave under regulation 13A fail because the CJEU case law and the Court of Appeal have made it clear that the rights discussed above do not apply to the additional leave. *. The claimant’s claims under the WTR fail.
Case Rating: *
Here are the legal points to note:
- The claimant was paid for 24 days of leave before *.
- The claimant took 24 days of leave each year, fulfilling the entitlement under Regulation * of the WTR.
- The claims for additional leave under Regulation 13A fail based on CJEU and Court of Appeal rulings.
- Overall, the claimant's claims under the WTR fail.
Would you like to know more about the legal precedents or specific rulings cited in your case?
the specific ruling, was wtr30 suppose to pply here?
Case Rating: *
The specific ruling you mentioned focused on Regulation * and 13A of the Working Time Regulations (WTR). Regulation * pertains to compensation for infringements of rights under the WTR, including denied leave. However, it seems the claimant's case failed due to specific legal interpretations by the CJEU and Court of Appeal.
Can you provide more details about the nature of your leave denial to determine if Regulation * applies to your situation?
yes, under the premises that additional holiday is already being paid in the salary even if yu dont take it. And cjeu and law doesnt allow carryover of the *.* weeks. But was it supposed to be compensated under wtr30?
Case Rating: *
Under Regulation 13A(*) of the Working Time Regulations, additional leave cannot be replaced by payment in lieu, except on termination of employment. If the additional holiday is included in your salary but not granted as actual leave, you could potentially claim under Regulation * for compensation.
Would you like to know more about making a claim under Regulation * in this scenario?
so, up to *. lets say days in lieu of working bank holidays, when these are part of the *.* weeks entitlement?
Case Rating: *
Under the Working Time Regulations in England:
- The *.* weeks of annual leave includes the * weeks of statutory leave and *.* weeks of additional leave (often covering bank holidays).
- If you're required to work on bank holidays, you should receive days in lieu.
Is your employer not allowing you to take the days in lieu for working on bank holidays?
gave it last year but not for previus ones.
Case Rating: *
It seems you may have a valid claim for compensation under Regulation * for the previous years if your employer failed to grant you days in lieu for working on bank holidays. This claim could be strengthened if you can argue that the delay in receiving your contract affected your ability to claim sooner.
Would you like to know more about the process of making a claim under Regulation *?
what is the dfference between compensation and payment in lieu? cause seems off as wtr30 allows copensation for the *.* holiday but wtr13a * says no payment in lieu unless terminated..
Case Rating: *
Key Differences:
- Payment in Lieu:
- Regulation 13A(*) states that additional leave cannot be replaced by payment in lieu, except on termination of employment.
- Compensation:
- Regulation * allows employees to seek compensation if their rights under the WTR are infringed, such as not being granted additional leave.
Would you like to know more about specific compensation processes under Regulation *?
from the judgement: This is a complaint relating to a failure to enable the claimant to take annual leave in respect of * and preceding years. t. I consider that it was not reasonably practicable for the complaint to be presented within the three month time limit because the claimant was not aware of his rights at that stage
Case Rating: *
It seems like the judgement acknowledges that the claimant was not able to present the complaint within the three-month time limit due to a lack of awareness of their rights. This could potentially strengthen your case under Regulation * for compensation.
Would you like more detailed information on how to proceed with a claim under Regulation *, considering the court's acknowledgment of the timing issue?
another paragrapf : This is a complaint relating to a failure to enable the claimant to take annual leave in respect of * and preceding years. t. I consider that it was not reasonably practicable for the complaint to be presented within the three month time limit because the claimant was not aware of his rights at that stage.
Case Rating: *
It seems you have a solid understanding of your situation, and there is potential for a claim under Regulation * for denied leave. Given that the court acknowledges the delay was due to a lack of awareness of rights, this may strengthen your case.
- Regulation 13A(*): Additional leave cannot be replaced by payment in lieu, except on termination of employment.
- Regulation *: Allows compensation for infringed rights, including denied leave.
Would you like more detailed information on the compensation process under Regulation *?
no. but then follows a fail: It is for these reasons that I consider it was not reasonably practicable for the complaint to be presented within the three month time limit. The question is therefore whether the claimant’s leave from previous years carried over or accrued.
Case Rating: *
It seems your query involves complex legal interpretations of Regulations 13A and * of the Working Time Regulations, especially concerning leave accrual and compensation.
The main points to consider are:
- Regulation 13A(*): Additional leave cannot be replaced by payment in lieu, except on termination.
- Regulation *: Allows compensation for infringed rights under WTR, including denied leave.
Would you like more detailed information on how to proceed with a claim under Regulation *?
no, I want to understand from the paragraph I sent you why from compensation under wtr30 it went to : I have found that the claimant took 24 days of leave in all his holiday years which means that he has taken his entitlement under regulation * of the WTR. The claimant’s claims in respect of additional leave under regulation 13A fail because the CJEU case law and the Court of Appeal have made it clear that the rights discussed above do not apply to the additional leave. Claim failed!
Case Rating: *
It seems the ruling is based on a few specific points:
*. Entitlement Taken: The claimant took 24 days of leave each year, meeting the entitlement under Regulation * of the WTR.
*. Regulation 13A: Claims for additional leave under Regulation 13A fail because CJEU case law and the Court of Appeal have clarified that the rights discussed do not apply to additional leave.
*. Specific Rulings: The legal interpretations by the CJEU and Court of Appeal determined that the additional leave under Regulation 13A does not carry the same rights for compensation under Regulation *.
Would you like more detailed information on the specific CJEU and Court of Appeal rulings referenced?
it wasnt about carrover and accrual? it was about compensation?
Case Rating: *
To clarify:
- Regulation *: Provides for * weeks of statutory leave.
- Regulation 13A: Provides additional *.* weeks of leave.
- CJEU and Court of Appeal Rulings: State that additional leave under Regulation 13A does not carry over and does not have the same compensation rights as the * weeks under Regulation *.
Would you like more detailed information on any specific aspect of this?
how they do not have the same compensation rights? where is written?
Case Rating: *
The difference in compensation rights between Regulation * and Regulation 13A is based on legal interpretations by the CJEU and the Court of Appeal.
- Regulation *: Provides * weeks of statutory leave with compensation rights for infringements.
- Regulation 13A: Provides additional leave without the same compensation rights, except on termination of employment.
Would you like to explore any specific legal documents or case laws related to these regulations?
ok but wtr30 is clear enough
Case Rating: *
It appears that your case involves complex legal interpretations of the Working Time Regulations, specifically regarding the compensation rights under Regulation * for additional leave under Regulation 13A.
Here's the main point:
- Regulation * allows employees to seek compensation if their rights under the WTR are infringed, including denied leave.
- Regulation 13A(*) specifies that additional leave cannot be replaced by payment in lieu, except on termination of employment.
- The CJEU and Court of Appeal rulings have clarified that the additional leave under Regulation 13A does not carry the same compensation rights as the * weeks under Regulation *, meaning compensation claims under Regulation * for denied additional leave may not be applicable in the same way.
Would you like more information on how to potentially strengthen your case or any specific legal precedents?
but here says different: *.—(*) A worker may present a complaint to an employment tribunal that his employer— (a)has refused to permit him to exercise any right he has under— [F1(i)regulation *(*) or (*), *(*), (*) or (*), *(*) or (*), * [F2, 13A, 15B or 15D];] (ii)regulation *, in so far as it applies where regulation *(*), *(*) or (*) or *(*) is modified or excluded; F3... [F4(iii)regulation 24A, in so far as it applies where regulation *(*), *(*) or (*) or *(*) is excluded; or (iv)regulation *(*), 27A(*)(b) or *(*); or] (b)has failed to pay him the whole or any part of any amount due to him under regulation *(*) [F5, 15E, *(*) or 16A].
Case Rating: *
You are correct that Regulation * allows workers to present a complaint to an employment tribunal if their rights under various regulations, including Regulation 13A, are infringed.
Would you like more detailed information on how to proceed with a claim under Regulation *, or is there a specific aspect you're unsure about?
we are already talking about something. Are there not the same under wtr30?
Case Rating: *
It appears that Regulation * does allow employees to seek compensation if rights under Regulation 13A are infringed. However, the interpretation by courts, including the CJEU and Court of Appeal, has been that the additional leave under Regulation 13A does not carry the same compensation rights as the statutory leave under Regulation *, except upon termination of employment.
Could you clarify if your employer has consistently refused to grant the additional leave days (*.* weeks) besides the statutory leave? This might help in understanding your situation better.
can you tell me difference between payment in lieu and compensation?
Case Rating: *
Sure! Here's the key difference:
- Payment in Lieu:
- Regulation 13A(*): Additional leave cannot be replaced by payment in lieu, except on termination of employment.
- Compensation:
- Regulation *: Allows employees to seek compensation if their rights under the Working Time Regulations are infringed, such as not being granted additional leave.
Do you need more specific information about either term?
yes, how they can go toghether as they do not seem to contradict. But the tribunal contradicted these * terms..
Case Rating: *
It seems your situation involves a nuanced legal interpretation of how "payment in lieu" and "compensation" relate to denied leave under the Working Time Regulations (WTR). Here's a breakdown:
- Payment in Lieu:
- Regulation 13A(*): States that additional leave cannot be replaced by payment in lieu, except on termination of employment.

- Compensation:
- Regulation *: Allows employees to seek compensation if their rights under the WTR (including Regulation 13A) are infringed.
The tribunal's interpretation might hinge on specific legal precedents and detailed circumstances of your case. Would you like more detailed information on how to navigate this with a potential claim?
no. so the tribunal found that claim was presented in a resonable time, that prior to 2 years if the claim, the claimant did not know and was not informed about the *.* weeks additional holiday. Means that wtr30 doesnt have effect when wtr13a although it is clearly written 13a
Case Rating: *
It seems the tribunal's decision was based on specific legal interpretations that might not align perfectly with your understanding of the regulations. Here are the key points:
- Regulation 13A: Provides additional annual leave.
- Regulation *: Allows employees to seek compensation if rights under WTR are infringed.
- Regulation 13A(*): Specifies that additional leave cannot be replaced by payment in lieu, except on termination.
The tribunal's decision might hinge on specific legal precedents and the detailed circumstances of your case. It appears they concluded that the infringement did not warrant compensation under Regulation * due to the claimant's awareness and timing.
Would you like to discuss any specific legal precedents or rulings cited in your case?
ok but first should not rely on law rther than case law/ especialy now that uk is not part of eu, and the claim was about the domestic leave not the eu derived leve
Case Rating: *
Understood. The tribunal's decision might focus more on domestic interpretations of the Working Time Regulations (WTR) rather than EU-derived precedents, particularly post-Brexit.
Would you like to explore how recent case laws in the UK might affect your claim regarding additional leave and compensation under the WTR?
yes, about compensation or carryover
Case Rating: *
Understood. To provide you with more detailed information:

- Carryover: The CJEU and Court of Appeal have interpreted that the additional leave under Regulation 13A does not carry the same rights for carryover or compensation as the statutory leave under Regulation *.
Recent UK case laws might provide further clarity on these points. Would you like to discuss specific recent rulings or precedents that could affect your claim?
yes
Case Rating: *
Here are some key points regarding recent UK case laws that might impact your claim:
- Compensation: Regulation * allows for compensation if your rights under the WTR are infringed.
- Carryover: Recent rulings indicate that the additional leave under Regulation 13A does not carry over like statutory leave.
