Holiday pain
The decision in Harpur Trust v Brazel [2022] UKSC 21 was handed down on 20 July 2022 having been heard at the Supreme Court on 9 November 2021. The decision upholds that of the Court of Appeal from August 2019 and dismisses the appeal by the Harpur Trust.
The case concerns a music teacher (Mrs Brazel) who worked at Bedford School run by Harpur Trust. It discusses the issue of how to work out holiday pay when taking into account:
- the part-time workers directive;
- EU legislation in the shape of the working time directive which was legislated for in the UK under the banner of the Working Time Regulations SI 1998/1833 now classified as ‘retained EU law’ by European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 s 2; and
- the definition of a week’s pay for the purposes of calculating holiday pay.
