In accordance with Section 28A of the Holidays Act 2003, employees can request to have up to one week of their
entitled annual leave each year paid out to them.
The request and the approval should be in writing.
Review your leave balances and check the criteria from Employment New Zealand before approving any requests.
Always use the CASH-AL pay element as there are rules around how this payment is treated for Holiday Pay Liable Earnings and it is taxed as a lump sum or extra pay.
