Holiday entitlement

[redbaron]

Hi. Was wondering if any one could answer a question on how many holidays the uk worker is entitled to. I remember reading a while ago that its going up to 28 days from April 09. Is this including stat days? Is there any legal eagles or union people who know.

hi,
yes, the 28 day minimum does include statutory holidays.

30 days a year annual leave
10.5 public and priv hols a year and
12 - 18 days a year flexi (if i have enough flexi time and leave is available)

i wish . you have to make the flexi to take it and the role im in allows you to make 10 mins a day flexiat the most!! so as you can imagine i dont use a lot of flexi leave. we dont have "proper flexi" like other government departments where they can start anywhere up to 10am and finish anytime after 330pm without getting permisson or having to ask anyone!!

i could be doing with a 4 day week the amount of stress my job causes me but at the same time im glad i have a job in this current climate.
