Overworked Manager Wins £400k in Unpaid Holiday
10 Apr
Summary
- Manager accrued 827 unpaid holiday days over 25 years.
- He was awarded nearly £400,000 for accrued holiday.
- Claim included £105,000 compensation for unfair dismissal.
An employment tribunal awarded Mohamed Ageli nearly £400,000 for 827 unpaid holiday days accrued over 25 years. Mr. Ageli, a commercial manager at Sabtina Limited, had his holiday requests denied due to workload, with an agreement to be paid for untaken leave. This arrangement was in place for decades.
In 2022, new directors replaced the board and later dismissed Mr. Ageli for alleged gross misconduct in March 2024. The tribunal found the dismissal procedurally unfair, ordering Sabtina Limited to pay the full £392,000 holiday entitlement. Additionally, Mr. Ageli received £91,490 for unfair dismissal and £14,070 as a basic award.
