It takes the view that, notwithstanding the remuneration received by Mr Lock during his annual leave, the financial disadvantage which, although deferred, is nonetheless genuinely suffered by him during the period following that leave, may deter him from exercising his right to annual leave. As British Gas conceded, the worker does not generate any commission during the period of his annual leave.
Elle considère que, nonobstant la rémunération perçue par M. Lock pendant son congé annuel, celui-ci peut être dissuadé d’exercer son droit au congé annuel en raison du désavantage financier différé mais bien réel subi au cours de la période suivant celle du congé annuel. En effet, ainsi que British Gas l’a admis, le travailleur ne génère pas de commission durant la période de congé annuel.
