UK holiday entitlement calculator

How it works

Statutory UK leave is 5.6 weeks a year for someone working every weekday — multiply your days worked per week by 5.6 to pro-rate it for part-time patterns. The hours figure does the same thing using your weekly hours, in case your work pattern varies and a day-based figure isn't meaningful.

FAQ

Where does the 5.6-week figure come from?

UK statutory minimum paid holiday is 5.6 weeks a year for a full-time worker — for someone working 5 days a week, that works out to 28 days, and it scales down proportionally for fewer days or hours.

Does my employer have to use exactly the statutory minimum?

No — 5.6 weeks is only the legal floor. Many UK employers offer more, so check your contract rather than assuming this figure is your actual entitlement.
