If you work 12 hours a week for 35 weeks of the year are you entitled to holiday pay?

...

scullion	Please do not believe all (or even most) of the answers given so far. In fact, please don't even believe mine but check it for yourself on the web link below. In the UK, part-time employees have the same statutory employment rights as other employees. You do not have to work a minimum number of hours to qualify for employment rights. Here is a link to the government web site that deals with employment matters: http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Employment/Employees/EmploymentContractsAndConditions/DG_10027738

Marky	Yes, but as a proption on the whole year. 35 out of 52 weeks (standard year) is 67%, and then 12 hours out of 40 (standard week) makes it 20% of the total. So, if you are entitled at full working to 20 days (standard holiday entitlement), you would be entitled to 4 days per year at that ratio.

fergalicious	have a look at the following website, and if you need any further info, contact the citizens advice bureau. http://www.adviceguide.org.uk/scotland/life/employment_scotland/holidays_and_holiday_pay.htm

little devil	No

spook542	No

loopy loo	if your only working 35 weeks out of 52, then you should not need ay more holidays

Littlepetal	yes you most certainly are. Eneryone is entitled to holiday pay when they work. x

Toffy	Well not in the USA.....that is for sure. Need to work at least 24 hours a week....and maybe entitled to 4 hours regular rate of pay for the holiday.

stormydays	Everyone is entitled to statutory holiday pay

Graham H	Thinking about what you are 'entitled' to can make you win the argument but lose the job. In the real world you decide how much you want the job before you make waves.

Mr-K-	depends on your contract.

djn_jay	It would depend on who the company that u worked for considered to be eligible. With some employers, employees are paid holiday wages only if they work on that day. In other circles, full time employees may be compensated whether they that day or not.

Dimples	Hi, I work term time part time which means that I work an average of 15 hours per week over the full year. I am entitled to holiday pay. It is worked out in hours rather than days. You need to speak to your employer as everyone is entitled to holiday.

jmiller	Not unless it is company policy. Usually, you have to be considered "full time" before you receive holiday pay.

mikeywills	what are you doing for the other 17 weeks?

Must Be The Clouds In My Eyes	yes

Joe_know_it_all	depends on the job, you normally are not entitled to holiday pay unless you have a salary and not an hourly wage.
