Calculate holiday entitlement: Information based on your answers

The statutory holiday entitlement is 16.5 days holiday.

The employer:

  • can include bank and public holidays as part of the statutory entitlement
  • can choose to round up the holiday entitlement, but cannot round it down
  • must provide holiday pay during the statutory leave
  • can provide more paid holiday - this will be in the employment contract and is called ‘contractual leave entitlement’

The user should be aware:

  • leave entitlement accrues differently in a worker’s first year - further information is available online
  • when a worker leaves employment within the first 12 months, their leave is calculated using the “For someone starting and leaving part way through a leave year” option in the calculator
