The Federal Labour Court dismissed the employer’s revision, with partial modification of the lower judgments. It held that the employee is entitled to a monthly performance allowance of EUR 460.57 gross for the period from 1 July 2007 to 31 August 2008, after deduction of payments already made. The allowance also had to be included in the calculation of continued remuneration, additional vacation pay, and the special payment. The defendant had to bear the costs of the revision. The parties had waived findings of fact and reasons under § 313a ZPO.
§ 16 EMTV, § 14 Nr. 1 und Nr. 2 EMTV, § 2 Nr. 2.2 ETV 13. Monatseinkommen; inclusion of a performance allowance in remuneration calculations: Where a contractual or collective performance allowance is owed as remuneration for work, it is to be taken into account in the basis for continued pay, additional vacation pay, and special payments if the governing remuneration rules link those components to monthly earnings. The decisive factor is whether the allowance belongs to the regular remuneration structure and is not excluded by a contrary agreement. Partial alteration of the appellate and first-instance judgments is permissible where only the legal qualification of the allowance and its remuneration relevance is at issue.
