Question

if i employ someone for 15 > 18 hours per week, what holiday entiltlement will she have?

Answer 1

Same as full time workers... 4 weeks paid (as a minimum - check Company benefits)

BUT! it does work a little differently...

For example, if you work Monday, Tuesday and Weds.... you will be entitled to 12 days off per yer (equivalent to 4 weeks, 3 days per week x 4)

Answer 2

I used to work 18 hours a week. I was allowed 14 and a half days a year, plus the 8 bank holidays each year. The full time employees who had been there the same length of time as me (who worked 37 hours a week) were allowed 29 days a year plus the 8 bank holidays each year.

Answer 3

Everyone is entitled to four weeks minimum annual leave, initially calculated on a pro rata basis to the length of sevice and average hours worked. There are also regulations set down as to how and when the holiday year is calculated, and specific requirements as to when the money has to be paid.
Visit www.businesslink.gov for an outline summary, where there are also links to the DTI site setting out all you need to know.

Answer 4

depends what days she works. the legal minimum is 20 days which at the minute includes bank holidays, but is going to change to be 28 days in near future.

that is designed around a 5 day week, so if they do 2 8 hour days then they entitled to 8 of those days off per year.
if they work 3 hours a day for 5 days a week then they entitled to 20 of those days off a year.

Answer 5

I believe all employees are entitled by law to a minimum of 28 days paid holidays per year.It doesn`t matter if the are part time or full time.
I would suggest you look at the site below..

I could be wrong but you can double check with the citizens advice or your local job centre.

Hope this helps
