Annual leave entitelment

wellused

I know that annual leave is paid on a pro rata basis but is it usually calculated simply as the number of days annual leave entitlement divide by 12 to give the number of days leave owed for the number of months worked? And if so how would it work out if the employee ended their employment part way into a month?
Example, my company's annual leave period starts on January 1st and runs until December 31st, I am entitled to 32 days annual leave in that period.
32/12 = 2.6 days/month. I am expecting to leave my employment on December 4th and I have so far taken 20 days paid leave, will I therefore be owed 10 days paid leave or will I be entitled to the full 12 days paid leave as I will still be employed into the final month.
I hope that makes sense it looks confusingly simple to me?

Strictly speaking it should be calculated by days, not months.

32 / 365 = 0.08767

338 (days worked) x 0.08767 = 29.6 days leave for this year. Round up to 30.

It gets more complicated because the allowance is over statutory.

Does the 32 include bank holidays?


Statutory need to be done at te finer resolution but the extra days can have other rules.

What ever rule is used the alocation neds to be at least wat statutory would have given you.

It's 32 days without bank holidays we don't get bank holidays.
