An employer and employee can agree to take the period of the closedown as Annual Holidays in advance using the ANHL paycode. Otherwise the following method applies: If an employee is not entitled to Annual Holidays but is required to observe the closedown period the employer must pay the balance of Holiday Pay (HP) accrued since employment began or the employee last became entitled to Annual Holidays. If this is done the employees Holiday Anniversary date should be changed to be 12 months from the start of the closedown period. |
