Chapter 9

Enforcing rights to time off 





[ch 9: page 305]

A claim can be brought in the employment tribunal to enforce these rights. A tribunal can order the employer to pay the employee who is denied the time off their outstanding pay, even if the employer’s refusal meant that the employee worked and was paid during the time when the appointment should have occurred.
