How Much Paid Holiday Are Employees Entitled to in the UK?

Most employees in the UK are entitled to 5.6 weeks of paid annual leave each year. For someone working 5 days a week, this usually equals 28 days of holiday.

For part-time employees, holiday entitlement is calculated proportionally to the hours or days worked. This is one of the areas where employers often make mistakes, especially when employees work variable schedules.

We help businesses calculate holiday entitlement correctly for all types of workers and ensure their payroll remains fully compliant with UK regulations.
