normally 22 days plus bank/public holidays.

An employee is legally entitled to annual leave equal to a minimum of 5.6 times their normal working week. This means that someone working five days a week is entitled to twenty-eight days' leave each year. The entitlement includes Bank Holidays but some employers add the Bank Holidays to the legal minimum.

Thanks to all who answered and especially THECORBYLOON

The minimum used to be 20 days per year but some employers did not include Bank Holidays in this so if you didn't work a BH you weren't paid. The last govt. rectified this by including the 8 days in the statutory minimum, bringing it up to 28 days.

40 x 5.6
|

I get 28 days but have to keep 3 for Christmas, Boxing Day and New Years Day if they fall on weeekdays. So 25 really. We don't get bank holidays or inservice days or anything like that either.
|
|
As I said the minimum entitlement for full time workers is 20 + 8 (to cover public holidays).
|
|
but 10 bank holidays this year
|
|
but only if your hols run from april to march
|
|
9, Forgetmenot. The crafty sods have moved the Spring Bank Holiday from the last Monday in May to the first Monday in June, just as they did 10 years ago for the Golden Jubilee.
|
|
I know. 9 if jan to dec 10 if april to march
|
|
Were do you get 10 from? There is 1 BH for the Jubilee. 8 + 1 = 9, no matter were you start counting from.
|
|
yes but you get 2 good Fridays this year if running from start of april to end of march. April 6th 2011 and 29th March 2012. Which is a bugger for anyone having to take their hols that way as you have to try and remember you really only have 18 days to play with this year. But will have 21 to play with next year :-)
|
|
We get the BH but because we never work BHs anyway, we just discount them from our holiday allocation.
|
|
??? You have them the wrong way round. Good Friday 2011 was 22nd April, 2012 was 6th April.
|
|
sorry meant 6th april 2012 and then 29th march 2013, therefore two good fridays if annual leave runs from start april this year to end of march next year. So 9 if running jan to dec, 10 if running april to march x
|
|
we get 10 this year.
|
|
Won't it all "come out in the wash"?
|
|
I agree. But then of course you will only have 7 2013 - 2014.
|
|
Can you tell me what the 10 are, Boxtops?
