The company that my husband works for has just issued all it’s employees with new contracts of employment.

One of the (many) issues that I have with the contract is that it states that if an employee is summarily dismissed the company will pay them £1.00 for outstanding holiday.

I cannot find any information about entitlement to holiday pay with regard to summary dismissals but was under the impression that holiday pay should be a normal week’s pay for each week of leave due…..

Can the company really only pay him £1.00 for outstanding leave? As outstanding holiday pay has always been calculated based on a normal weeks pay previously can he refuse to accept this change to his terms and conditions?

Can anyone help?
