Having recently left my work place i have recieved a letter stating i owe the company an amount of money for holidays payed to me in lieu. I was never aware i had had these in lieu as it was never brought to my attention and most of them are for days i had to have off as there was no work available for me. I am a scaffolder and was employed but worked on price work and for holidays i was paid a set amount each day. I have read my contract which states that they will seek the money back which isnt a problem only i believe that on those days i had to use a holiday to cover my wages for the day i should have been paid the rate at which my holidays are paid. Am i right in thinking this or am i in the wrong? I just cannot see how i should have to use my holiday days to cover days i didnt really want off. any coments would be greatly appreciated to help in this matter. Also can i add it states nothing in my contract about having to use my holidays for this reason.
