You are assuming you book 7.5 hours per day to get back to 17 days. You will only book the hours off you would have worked, so 29.5 hours for a week, not the 37.5 hours as you are using as your calculation.
If you normally get 20 days plus bank holidays and they are going to given you 127.5 hours plus bank holidays i'd smile and say thank you. 127.5 hours / 29.5 hours is 4.32. 4.32 weeks is 21.6 days pro rata.
Your equivalent of 20 days (ignoring bank holidays) should only be 29.5 hours x 4 weeks = 118 hours.
Unless you have to book bank holidays out of the 127.5 hours?, in which case, yes it's wrong.
Absolutely CORRECT the employer has made a boo boo so I suggest that the OP says nowt0 -
what they have done is
lineyYour equivalent of 20 days (ignoring bank holidays) should only be 29.5 hours x 4 weeks = 118 hours.
and rounded it up to 120hrs then I got an extra full day this year (7.5hrs) for long service
so I have 127.50 hrs + all my BH
which is 23days if I take all 5.5hr days (which I doubt I will do because I will just book days that I need whichever day of the week they fall- I wont go out of my way to book 5.5hrs days off only)
or 17 days if I take all 7.5hrs days0
