Leave instead of holiday and December bonuses. The employee and the employer may reach an agreement to waive or reduce holiday and/or December bonuses, with corresponding periods of leave being granted instead, based on the wages of the individual worker. Such leave shall be granted in the form of whole or half working days. Example: An employee has a monthly wage of ISK 350,000 for full-time employment, based on daytime work. His daily wage is therefore ISK 16,151 (350,000/21.67). The holiday bonus is ISK 50,000 (2019). Instead of this ISK 50,000 holiday bonus, the employee and employer may agree that he receive three days of leave on full pay (ISK 16,151 x 3) and payment of ISK 1,547 as the balance of the holiday bonus.
