Pay for annual leave and compensation for unused leave under the Unified rules for calculating average pay: average daily pay over 12 months × working days falling within the leave by the working-time balance.
ADP = P / DV = ADP · nIf nothing was accrued in the period, take the previous 12 months of work; with no pay for 24 months, the daily rate from the salary (paras 10 and 12 of the Rules). After a pay rise, the pay of the months before it is multiplied by the rise coefficient (para 13).
