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, part-time, agency workers, and workers working irregular shifts.
Did you know…
- For every hour you work, you earn holiday pay?
- You’re legally entitled to holiday pay whether you work full-time, part-time or odd hours.
- 1.8 million workers missed out on holiday pay last year. Don’t be one of them.
- 35% of workers incorrectly think that only people in permanent jobs get holiday pay.
- If you work different hours week by week, the amount of money you are paid when taking holiday depends on your average pay for the 12 weeks before your holiday.
- Speak to your employer if you’re unsure of your specific circumstances, or if you think you’re not getting the correct holiday pay.
