Work out the statutory paid holiday a worker is entitled to: by days or hours a week, for irregular hours, or for someone who starts or leaves part way through the year.
5.6 weeks a year. For someone working 5 days a week that is 28 days, which is also the cap: nobody is entitled to more than 28 days by law, even working 6 days.
Are bank holidays included?Employers can count bank holidays as part of the 5.6 weeks. Tick the box if they come out of the total, or untick it if they are given on top.
How does irregular-hours holiday work?For leave years starting on or after 1 April 2024, irregular-hours and part-year workers build up holiday at 12.07% of the hours they actually work.
Is this legal advice?No. It shows the statutory minimum. Check the worker’s contract, which may give more.
