How Holiday Pay is Calculated
In the UK, holiday pay must be based on a worker's "normal remuneration." For those with regular hours, this is their standard weekly pay. The 2023 amendment to the Working Time Regulations introduced rolled-up holiday pay for irregular-hours workers.

FAQs
Do bank holidays count as part of my 28 days?
It depends on your contract. The law allows employers to count the 8 UK bank holidays towards the 28-day minimum, meaning you could have just 20 days of additional leave.
How is holiday pay calculated for part-time workers?
Part-time workers receive holiday entitlement pro-rata. If you work 3 days/week instead of 5, you get 3/5 of the standard 28-day entitlement = 16.8 days.
What if I work irregular hours?
From April 2024, irregular-hours workers can receive rolled-up holiday pay at 12.07% of pay, or have their entitlement calculated over a 52-week reference period.
Can I be paid instead of taking holiday?
Only for holiday entitlement above the 28-day statutory minimum. You cannot legally 'sell' your statutory 28 days in lieu of payment.
