Millions of workers could claim holiday overtime pay amounting to billions of pounds

I wonder what the implications for the many (in fact the higher overall proportion than in urban England) of micro-businesses are in terms of this story? A good candidate for rural proofing??

Millions of workers could claim back holiday pay amounting to billions of pounds under a ground-breaking legal ruling.

The ruling, made by the Employment Appeal Tribunal, says that overtime should be taken into account when holiday pay is calculated, paving the way for possible payouts worth thousands of pounds to workers.

The judgment also means workers could be able to make backdated claims.

However, the ruling could be subject to an appeal, which means any final decision could be some way off.

The Unite union welcomed the decision and said the ruling paved the way for possible payouts worth thousands of pounds to workers.
