Legal advice: Will I continue to be paid during the summer holidays?
I work at the same primary school almost the entire school year, a teacher emails. My temporary contract ends before the summer vacation. Am I entitled to continued payment during the holiday?

Any continued payment during the summer holidays depends on the end date of the employment. “An employer can determine the end date himself and can choose the last day of training or no later than 1 August”, says Wim Gulitz of the Information and Advice Center of AOb. "This lady will continue to be paid until the last day of class and therefore she will not receive any salary during the summer holidays."
Gulitz points out that this teacher may have had too little vacation. In primary education you accrue annual vacation leave from 1 October to 1 October. As of 1 July, this lady has accrued 321 leave hours (more than 428 days): nine months divided by twelve months times XNUMX hours. “If she has had less than forty days' vacation, the remainder must be paid. She also receives the remainder of the holiday pay and the end-of-year bonus. ”
Unemployment benefits
The end date in temporary employment is also important for applying for unemployment benefits. Gulitz: “Suppose the summer vacation starts on July 7 and you get paid until the last day of class. Compared to the end date of 1 August, you miss out on about three weeks of salary and you have to apply for unemployment benefits earlier. Apply for unemployment benefit no later than one week after your last working day. If you do this later, you may receive a lower benefit. ”
