Holidays with Pay and Benefits Schemes
The Building and Civil Engineering benefits scheme has unveiled a new holiday pay plan following the introduction of the Working Time Directive. From 2 August 1999 there are no fixed holiday credits, instead employers will calculate appropriate sums to fund operatives’ holiday pay entitlement and make regular monthly payments into the B&CE scheme.
