(Finance) – On holidays for temporary workers, forgetfulness is no longer permitted: school managers who do not invite substitute staff, before the end of the fixed-term contract, to use the vacation days accrued during their service will then be forced to pay them. He also reminded the school heads of this the Aran: “the employer – writes Aran – has the burden of demonstrating that he has exercised all the necessary diligence to ensure the worker was effectively put in a position to benefit from paid annual leave to which he was entitled (EU Court 6.10.2018 in case C-684/16, points 45 to 47)”.
The question is about 400 thousand temporary teachers: they are all those who have had a ‘short and occasional’ substitute job this year, or an annual one expiring on 30 June 2024, but also until the end of the lessons, and who will have to be placed on holiday in the next few days at the end of the lessons . “If this does not happen it is clear that they will have to be paid as required by the Supreme Court and the European Court of Justice. Except that to get that money, which on a long temporary job corresponds to approximately one extra salary, they will have to appeal”, he underlines Marcello Pacifico, national president of Anief.
The young union, advises i school workers, teachers and Atawho had their vacation days taken away to join the new membership campaign specific appeal completely free of charge: the well-founded objective is to restore the right to monetize unused holidays by all temporary staff who have worked in public schools with contracts as of 30 June.
