Can payment be given in lieu of the additional holiday?
Yes, until 1 April 2009, if both worker and employer agree. Four weeks’ leave must still be taken as holiday in each leave year. For statutory leave entitlement accruing after 1 April 2009, payment in lieu will not be permitted (although payment in lieu of any leave above the statutory entitlement could be allowed depending on the contract of employment).
