Umbrella corporations & holiday pay

The expenses amount is shown on the bottom 1/2 of the payslip (with all the (COPY ONLY) text. Ah, hadn't scrolled down far enough.

I'd agree that they are actually showing the holiday pay separately, but ...

I agreed to an hourly rate of £7 for this particular job, not £6.24.

The bold bit I quoted above from the solicitor's website I found also says they can't do what they're doing:

Your employer cannot include an amount for holiday pay in your hourly rate (called 'rolled-up holiday pay')

You need to show that you were quoted £7/hour. Do you have that in writing from them?


This is where I think Ntech/Wild are in the wrong. The guy I spoke to at Ntech today said that that's exactly what they do. The £7/hr includes my holiday pay.

I am of course accepting that what this employment solicitor has written is accurate.

I can't link it (obviously) but if you Google "steen & co rolled up holiday pay" (without the quotes), you'll find the link to the full document.
