Inclusion of contractual performance allowance in base for continued wages, holiday pay, and bonus calculations under collective agreements
Legislator-Zusammenfassung
KI-generiertThe German Federal Labor Court (BAG) rejected the defendant’s revision but partially amended the lower court judgments, ordering the defendant to pay the plaintiff a monthly performance allowance totaling 272.87 Euro gross (less amounts already paid) for the period from July 1, 2007, to August 31, 2008, and to incorporate this allowance into the calculation of continued monthly wages, holiday pay, and bonus payments. The dispute concerned the plaintiff’s entitlement to a collective agreement-based performance allowance and its impact on other statutory and contractual benefits. The decisive legal basis involved the interpretation and application of the relevant collective agreements (EMTV, ETV 13. Monatseinkommen), specifically provisions on wage calculation, holiday pay, and bonus schemes, establishing that the performance allowance was a mandatory component of the total remuneration to be included in subsequent calculations.
