    Hi SRK 

    Annual leave still accrues while on ACC because the employment is deemed continuous. However you are correct - it is accruing with no $. Therefore the average earnings for 12 months will fall below the ordinary rate of pay, and the system will pay at ordinary pay because this is greater than the average.

    Thanks Jenni - so I just continue as I am.

     

    She is taking some planned annual leave, so do I just use the higher of average weekly earnings or normal weekly pay.  Her hours have varied from between about 10-40 over the last year with some weeks of no earnings (except for ACC as well).

     

    Roll on revamp of the holidays act - in situations like this it is very tricky indeed!!
