Hey I am after some advice I am basically wanting to leave my current employment and I am trying to work out how much holiday pay I would have to pay them back. I get 22 days plus all bank holidays and currently work 37.5 hours a week, I have used all but 1/2 days leave my holiday runs from April to March I have to give 12 weeks notice. As I was looking at giving my notice in in November ( I am going on a course and need to wait for my certificate to arrive which I have paid for myself) would it be less Hassel to just wait until March to leave. just trying to work out how much I would have to pay back from my paycheck.
Thanks all

Assuming your working day is 7.5 hrs and you work Mon - Fri , your annual holiday hours would be 232.5 (incl bank hols). This works out to approx 19.3 hours per month. Your notice period means you would have worked 10 months of your leave year - pro-rated this would then be an allowance of 193 hours or (nearly) 26 days (incl bank hols). So you are about 39 hours short of a full leave year - if you only have half a day left you are about 4 days short.

Disclaimer - This is my rough calculation. You need to speak to your HR dept

Mine will be wrong if you don't work Mon - Fri and don't work the same number of hours each day.

It will also be wrong if my fat fingers have pressed the wrong button on the calculator!

Hi thank u I currently work
Monday and Thursday = 5.5 hours
Rest of the week = 24 hours and every other Saturday = 5 hours.
We have no HR as I work for a small independent business I really don't want to stay longer than needed if it's not to much to pay back I will do that but if so will stick it out until March.
Thank u for your advice

As you work fewer hours on a Monday, you can probably add some hours back to your holidays taken from the bank holiday allowance for the bank hols that fall on Mondays.

Where I work, you would be 'credited' 7 hours (our standard working day) per bank holiday, but if your normal pattern was to work 5 hours on a Monday, you would only have 5 hours deducted for taking each Bank Holiday Monday off - so you'd get 8 hrs in total back back for Easter Monday, May Day, Spring Bank hol and August Bank hol - plus, if Christmas, Boxing Day or New Year (or lieu Bank Hols for those) fell on a Monday, 2 hrs for each of those as well.

When you give your 10 weeks' notice, they should let you know where you stand with holidays and your final wage - it would be reasonable to have that conversation as part of agreeing your end date. You could also ask if you could work any days owing as TOIL in the intervening period so you finish with a full wage. They might be glad of this if you could do extra hours over Christmas to cover other people's holidays.
