Saras anställning slutar och hon har intjänad semesterlön kvar. Hur ska den normalt ersättas?
Sara’s employment ends with accrued holiday pay remaining. How is it normally paid out?
Correct answer: As holiday compensation from the employer
Accrued holiday pay that has not been paid is normally paid as holiday compensation when employment ends. It is an employment entitlement already earned, not an unemployment benefit.
Key words
semesterersättning · holiday compensation
