Supreme Court quashes lower court ruling on fishing crew overtime pay calculation excluding catch commission.

The Supreme Court quashed the lower court's dismissal of the plaintiff's claim regarding additional holiday pay for a fishing boat crew member. The plaintiff argued that the employer failed to correctly calculate holiday pay by excluding the catch commission (part) from the base salary, contrary to the employer's internal regulations. The court ruled that the lower court's interpretation of the Maritime Employment Act and the company's pay regulation was incomplete and did not fully consider the parties' intent and the specific provisions of the regulation. Consequently, the case was remanded for a new decision on the correct calculation of the holiday pay allowance.
