The Federal Labour Court dismissed the defendant’s revision, while partially modifying the judgments below. It held that the claimant is entitled to a monthly performance bonus of EUR 506.03 gross for 1 July 2007 to 31 August 2008, less sums already paid. The bonus must also be included in the calculation of continued wage payments, additional holiday pay, and the 13th-month special payment. The defendant was ordered to bear the costs of the revision. The parties waived a statement of facts and reasons.
§ 16 EMTV, § 14 Nr. 1 und Nr. 2 EMTV, § 2 Nr. 2.2 ETV 13. Monatseinkommen; inclusion of a performance bonus in wage continuation, holiday pay and special payment calculations. A recurring performance bonus owed for a defined period forms part of the remuneration basis where the collective agreement links such ancillary payments to the regular monthly earnings. If the bonus is payable monthly and is not excluded by contract or collective agreement, it must be taken into account for those calculation formulas; the appeal is dismissed insofar as the lower courts correctly granted this treatment (consid. unspecified).
