HOLIDAY ENTITLEMENT PAY

COMEON FRIENDS READ MY QUESTION AGAIN. I ASK THE QUESTION ON HOLIDAY ENTITLEMENT PAY NOT ON ESB

Dear Friends

I have worked for one of the reputed company for more than 2&1/2 years. Due to the requirements and the work load I use to go for short holidays such as week or 10days. I use to get paid for my holidays, at the end on mutual agreement I resigned the company on good terms.

Further I have my leave entitlement (due days were 69days) the company has objected paying my entire 69days ON MY SALARY PACKAGE they said that they will pay my leave pay “computing on basic salary” meaning the housing will not be paid. I really don’t see any logic or legal point why I should not get paid my full leave salary.

For example:
Basic 16,000/=
Housing allowance 8,000/=
Transportation allowance 1,000/=
Total package QAR 25,000/=

Paid 30days leave salary “QAR 25,000.00

As I resigned and moving to other company. The existing company decides and argued that they will pay my leave pay computing on basic salary. PLEASE ADVICE IF THIS IS CORRECT. OR SHOULD I GET PAID FULL QAR 57,500.00 FOR 69 DAYS OR BASED ON BASIC SALARY CALCULATION QAR 36,800.00

PLEASE ADVICE SHOULD I GET QAR 57,500 OR QAR 36,800

As HMS states, you have already been paid your housing allowance all along, you will be paid only the basic.

On the other hand if you were still working for them, you will be taking the 69 days leave, therefore your leave salary has to be based on the package, as you have to pay your rent even though you are out of the country on leave.

Most companies, if not all, compute using the basic salary. That's the "basic" rule. Purely business:)

Always leave salary will be computed based on Basic salary only, because u have already enjoyed HRA while working, and if they pay you alongwith the leave settlement then dont u think they are paying the HRA again.

So logically it should be computed on basic salary only
