Pay Time off in leave at final pay

Hi, I would like to have a question about how to pay out time off in lieu.

I have an employee which is a fulltimer who works 38 hours per week. He isn't paid with overtime rate in public holiday. I pay him with normal rate and he will receive DIL for the holiday he worked.

Now he resigns and I have to prepare the final pay which pay out any unsused annual leave and DIL that he hasn't taken time off for.

But if I pay the DIL in his final pay, doesn't that mean I paid him twice for 1 public holiday?

Could anyone please advise what's wrong in this process?

Thank you so much.

    Hi

    yes you are paying him twice for the public holiday that you didn't pay his penalty rate for as you agreed he would have a day off instead , but be paid for it, so now you are paying him for the day 

     

    hint of it this way , you are paying him as if he is actually taking all the days he is owed

     

    eg you owe him three days and he leaves on Friday , working on a 5 day week you are paying him as if is to leave after work the following Wednesday 

     

    hope that makes sense
