Holiday entitlement

Post by Mrsd »

Hoping someone can help me as i dont get a straight answer at the DO or its difficult finding someone to ask.

Im p/t, work 27.5 hours a week over 5 days. Started Nov 2018 so havent been told what my holidays are from when i started until the new holiday year kicks in.

Am i supposed to get some sort of holiday card? Can i phone HR about holidays?

22.5 divided by 365 then multiply that by the amount of days you’ll have worked up until the 31st of March 2019.

Forgot to say, if any of your days off fell on a bank holiday, your also entitled to a day back for that also.

You can ask your manager for such a card.
Your annual leave entitlement may be expressed in hours rather than days.
You should also be able to see the holiday sheet to see where there are spaces available for you to take as leave.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
