Spanish term or phrase: bono vacacional
En una constancia de trabajo:

"Su compensación anual fija es de xxx, lo que incluye sueldo base anual, **bono vacacional** y utilidades, así como los aportes de la empresa al fondo de ahorros sobre sueldo, bono vacacional y utilidades."

Había pensado en colocar "holiday bonus" o "vacation bonus", pero según lo que encontré en internet el primero de los términos pareciera estar asociado con la Navidad y el segundo aparece relacionado con agencias de turismo.

Un bono vacacional es el monto que además de sueldo recibe un trabajador al momento de salir de vacaciones. En la empresa donde trabajaba, me pagaban mi suelgo normal y 40 días adicionales de sueldo como bono vacacional. ¿Se podría traducir como "vacations pay" o "holiday pay" o esto cambiaría el sentido?

Muchas gracias por adelantado.

Es para los EE.UU.

vacation pay


Explanation:
Unless somehow I'm missing something...this seems like your standard "vacation pay" which is for vacation days. Holidays are yes, Christmas, etc etc...Pay for those days is statutory holiday pay (pay for statutory holidays).

vacation bonus


Explanation:
in the US the term holiday is used for public holidays (bank holidays in UK) like Christmas....Vacations are personal days which you usually choose when to take. Some companies pay extra during your vacations days i.e your regular pay plus a %.
hope this helps.
