Health and Safety Law 2024 (October 2024)
Although the case focused on holiday pay, the ruling affects all other forms of payment, said UNISON. For holiday pay, commission and bonuses the “series” is limited by statute to two years in Great Britain but not in Northern Ireland. For other payments including statutory sick pay, statutory maternity/paternity/adoption pay and time off for union duties, the claim can go back to when the underpayment first began, UNISON explained.
