Temp, Part Time Nanny Holiday Entitlement - Help

10 replies

Page62 · 28/02/2011 15:52

Hi
I am employing a nanny for 3 days per week for 4 months.
Can someone tell me what she will be entitled to in terms of holiday? Also, in that period, there will be the 5 bank holidays (good fri, easter mon, royal wedding, 2 may bank hols) - can this count towards her entitlement - and presumably i need to pay her in full for it to count?
sorry, doing my head in, appreciate advice

thanks

A whole year's entitlement is 5.6 weeks or in your case 16.8 days so 4/12ths of that is 5.6 days. Round up to 6 days. Yes the bank holidays can be part of that, which will only leave one other day.

Not sure what you mean by 'pay her in full for it to count'? Yes you need to pay her for these 6 days holiday, whether they are bank holidays or not.
