Paid annual leave is a legal right that an employer must provide. Holiday pay is worked out according to the kind of hours someone works and how they’re paid for the hours.
This includes:
- full-time workers
- part-time workers
- agency workers
- workers working irregular shifts
- casual workers including zero-hours contracts
Workers are entitled to a week’s pay for each week of statutory leave that they take.
You can use the holiday calculator to work out how much leave someone should get.
