    You may find all rates are calculated by the hour, so if you did 40h in 2 days, it's paid as 40h that week specifically because that's the contracted weekly hours. It did not go over time, so no overtime premium.

    If you take 2 days off and don't get paid for them can't you ask to take these days off later in the year as they effectively haven't been used ?

    It sounds like whoever puts your hours worked into the pay office isn't adding your holiday so it is them who needs retraining. Maybe a supervisor or admin. Find out whose responsibility it is and politely reeducate them!

    It sounds like you need to take a week off at a time thereby being unable to do overtime.

    In your current situation I'd also check company policy on unused holidays. Do you lose them?

    You can't take holiday and work them, that would be the same as the company buying you holidays off you which is illegal.

    You could if you get more than the statutory amount of holiday. But somehow I doubt that applies, since they don't sound like that sort of employer.
