Holiday Pay: The Mistakes That Still Catch Employers Out

Avoid costly mistakes, reduce legal risk and strengthen your holiday pay compliance.

Holiday pay remains one of the most common areas of employment law non-compliance. Although the rules changed in 2024, many employers are still applying them incorrectly - often without realising it.

Miscalculating "normal remuneration", overlooking overtime or variable pay, or relying on outdated processes can all expose organisations to back-pay claims, employee disputes and unnecessary financial risk.

With the Fair Work Agency increasing the focus on employment rights enforcement, now is the time to make sure your approach is robust.

Join WorkNest's employment law and HR specialists for a practical webinar exploring the mistakes employers continue to make, why they happen, and the steps you can take to reduce risk.

17 December, 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Lyndsay Gourlay, Principal Employment Law Adviser, and Shaun Harper, Senior HR Consultant

What you'll learn:

  • The holiday pay mistakes employers still make - and why they happen.

  • The legal, financial and employee relations consequences of getting holiday pay wrong.

  • What increased enforcement means for employers and where scrutiny is likely to fall.

  • Practical ways to review your current arrangements and strengthen compliance.

Who should attend?

This webinar is designed for:

  • Business owners looking to reduce employment law risk

  • Directors and senior managers responsible for people management

  • HR and People professionals advising on holiday pay and compliance

  • Payroll professionals involved in holiday pay calculations

  • Anyone responsible for employment law compliance

Why this matters

Holiday pay isn't just a payroll calculation - it's a legal compliance issue.

Many employers assume they're getting it right because they've updated their policies since the 2024 reforms. In reality, mistakes often remain hidden until they're challenged through grievances, tribunal claims or regulatory scrutiny.

Whether you're reviewing your current approach or want reassurance that you're getting it right, this webinar will provide practical guidance to help you minimise risk and apply immediately.
