do we not receive holiday pay at the start of it; i.e. 2 weeks pay when having a week off?

id this something which when a factory closed down say for xmas even the wages dept would work same hours days so therefore if you didnt get paid upfront you wouldnt get paid till the week after you got back therefore being a week in arreas?
