    Should I be entitled to same amount of days holiday as full timers as I work the same amount of days as full-timers? They have 7.75 hour days, I have 6.75 hour days (and only get paid for that), so surely when I take holiday I would only be taking 6.75 hours off?

     




    That's correct. As a part timer your entitlment is calculated in hours. With a shorter working day you'll receive correspondingly more days off. 
    @Hoenir - that third sentence doesn't make sense.  With a shorter working day the OP would receive the same number of days off (but fewer hours per day than a full-time person), which you agreed in the second sentence.
