Holiday pay??
Comments

This is the section relevent to calculating holiday pay for workers that do irregular hours, The key is to not use 52 weeks when working out the accruded holiday.
The actual pay for the holiday will be at the normal rate or a calculated rate if there is no normal rate.
You just decide how many hours holiday you are taking and want paying for.Casual or irregular working patterns
If you work casually or irregular hours it may well be easiest to calculate the holiday entitlement that accrues (that is accumulates) as hours are worked. The holiday entitlement of 5.6 weeks is equivalent to 12.07 per cent of the hours you worked. The 12.07 per cent figure is:
5.6 weeks' holiday, divided by 46.4 weeks (being 52 weeks - 5.6 weeks) multiplied by 100 = 12.07 per cent
The 5.6 weeks have to be excluded from the calculation as you would not be present during the 5.6 weeks in order to accrue annual leave. For example, if you had worked 10 hours, you would be entitled to 72.6 minutes' paid holiday:
12.07 per cent x 10 hours = 1.21 hours = 72.6 minutes
The holiday entitlement is just over seven minutes for each hour worked0 -
Thanks Moreforless. Thing is, I work the same hours every week and have done for the whole 10 months i've worked there. They never change, i dont do overtime so there should have been no change to my holiday accrual or pay in the first placeLast bet : 26th Oct 2006:j Debt free 25th Feb 2008:j Living "my" dream:T0
