For example, if you work 3 days a week, you’re entitled to 16.8 days’ paid holiday (3 x 5.6) a year. If your employer gives full-time employees more than the statutory annual leave (for example, 6 weeks), then part-time employees must get the same, calculated pro rata.
How do you work out holiday entitlement per week?
The basic way to work out how many days holiday an employee is entitled to is to multiply the number of days a week they work by 5.6. That gives someone working a five-day week the 28 days we’ve already mentioned. Someone who is part-time and only works three days a week would be entitled to 3 x 5.6 = 16.8 days.
How many holidays do you get if you work 6 days a week?
28 days holiday
‘Rounding’ up holiday entitlement So, if you work six days a week, you’re not entitled to more than 28 days holiday under statutory entitlement (your Employer may give you more) – e.g. 5.6 x 5 days per week = 28 days but 5.6 x 6 days per week = 33.6 days is not a legal entitlement.
How many holidays Im allowed?
Your basic holiday rights There is a minimum right to paid holiday, but your employer may offer more than this. The main things you should know about holiday rights are: you are entitled to a minimum of 5.6 weeks paid annual leave (28 days for someone working five days a week)
What is the percentage of holiday pay?
The 12.07% figure was based on the principle that 5.6 weeks’ holiday is equivalent to 12.07% of hours worked per year. The figure is reached by dividing 5.6 by 46.4 (being 52 weeks minus 5.6 weeks).
What happens if my day off falls on a bank holiday?
If a bank holiday falls on one of your normal working days and you do not want to take the day off, you could ask your employer if you can work the bank holiday and take another day off instead. You can only get paid in lieu of bank holidays if they’re part of untaken holiday entitlement when you leave your job.
