The Federal Labour Court dismissed the employer's revision and partly altered the lower-court judgments. It held that the claimant is entitled to a monthly performance allowance totaling EUR 355.89 gross, less payments already made, for the period from 1 July 2007 to 31 August 2008. The allowance must also be included in the calculation of continued monthly remuneration, additional vacation pay, and the 13th-month bonus under the relevant collective agreement provisions. The defendant must bear the costs of the revision.
§ 16 EMTV; § 14 Nr. 1 and Nr. 2 EMTV; § 2 Nr. 2.2 ETV 13. Monatseinkommen; performance allowance and wage calculation basis. Where a collective agreement provides for a monthly performance allowance, its treatment in subsequent remuneration components depends on the contractual wording and the function of the allowance within the remuneration system. If the allowance is part of regular remuneration, it must be included in the calculation of continued pay and other collective-agreement-based supplementary payments according to the applicable clauses; the court may modify the lower judgments accordingly (consid. not specified).
