Calculating Your Holiday Pay.

Just a quickie this evening !  

No - please don't try , honest it's not a good idea! 

There have been a few postings on Facebook recently about West Yorkshire Fire & Rescue

miscalculating holiday pay lost due to sickness. 

For information we are showing below the 

NEW  Calculation 

The current formula used by the  Finance department is annual
payments divided by 182.5 and multiply the number of days outstanding.

and the OLD Calculation 

4 weekly payments divided by 28 and multiplied by the number of days
outstanding.  

So if you have recently left WYFRS check 

your final payments.

Any queries,we are sure your local FBU rep will advise.

Please note this is for WEST YORKSHIRE only - we do not know if it applies to other brigades. 

If you do get any back dated pay do let us know.

And finally  a quick thank you to Mark Hamilton for requesting this calculation by a Freedom of Information request in 

November 2013.
