Resumo Omnilex

The Federal Labour Court partly amended the lower courts and held that the defendant must pay the claimant a monthly performance allowance totaling EUR 598.73 gross for the period from 1 July 2007 to 31 August 2008, less amounts already paid. The allowance also has to be included in the calculation of continued monthly remuneration, additional holiday pay, and the 13th-month special payment under the applicable collective agreements. The defendant’s revision was otherwise unsuccessful and it must bear the costs of the revision. The parties waived findings of fact and reasons under § 313a ZPO.

§ 16 EMTV, § 14 Nr. 1 and Nr. 2 EMTV, § 2 Nr. 2.2 ETV 13. Monatseinkommen; collective agreement-based performance allowance as part of remuneration basis: If a recurring performance allowance is owed under the collective agreement, it must be included in the calculation of continued pay and of supplementary benefits that are determined by reference to monthly remuneration, unless the collective agreement expressly excludes it. The assessment turns on the function of the allowance as remuneration for work performed and on the wording and systematics of the applicable collective provisions (consid. not stated).
