The law clearly states that overtime should be included in holiday pay. The amount is averaged over the previous 12 weeks, so for example you are on a 20 hour contract and over the previous 12 weeks you have worked 40 hours every week you should then be paid 40 hours on your week off. This however only applies to the first 20 days holiday.

The Prison Service have won this in the courts and are currently backdating this pay from March 2016.

i heard about the prison service one. ive been doing 10 compulsory sundays 10h 30min a day every year for the last 23 years. And get looked at like a maddy when i bring it up. Trying to get it stopped since 2007. The path of the righteous blah. So my latest attempt is trying to refuse to do them.

This is right. Ralph here in the video I linked on Facebook explains what the union is going to be doing, basically starts off with individuals taking out grievances. Good ol’Ralph.
