Time and again there are errors when calculating the “old” handling. This is also demonstrated by a current case of Vorarlberg, which was not just about Kinklitzchen.
When it comes to dealing with ‘new’, employees do not have to worry, especially because the mechanism is automated and transparent. However, all who are still in the old check must be carefully investigated the last accounting.
Discovered errors
Mr. B.: After more than 30 years of service at a Vorarlberg company, he will receive his last accounts at the end of October 2024. He checked this by the Vorarlberg Chamber of Labor. The experts in the field of employment law quickly bring a serious error to light: the employer had not taken into account the variable remuneration components when calculating the handling according to the old system.
It was about the reimbursements for Sunday and public holidays, night shifts and overtime that Mr B. had regularly performed. “For the variable remuneration components, the average must be used from the past twelve months. This was not done in the case of Mr B.,” explains the Laborrecht expert Veronica Eberle-Wohlfen.
Malfunger of EUR 10,469,04
The Chamber of Labor intervened and reported the calculation error to the employer. He responded immediately and compensated for the shortage – with the Lord .. B made the proud sum of EUR 10,469,04 gross. Vorarlberg’s AK -President Bernhard Heinzle emphasizes that false restraint is not appropriate: “Mr. B. has been dedicated to his company for more than 30 years. It is just that he gets what he is entitled to.”
