Holiday allowance for three days a week

[eeyore12]

Please help I am trying to finalise a new contract and will be working three days a week tues-thurs, I had worked out that I would be entitled to just under 17 days a year (rounded up) to include any bank holidays that may fall on workings days (ie max three at Christmas) but they are saying entitled to 12 plus any bank holidays.

Who is right please or is there another answer. Thanks

16.8 assuming it is 3 days all year round not term time only.

ACAS has comprehensive guide to holiday and holiday pay.

Very few bank holidays are Tue-Thurs. Xmas, Boxing, New Year are some years.

They are working on the old system where you had a holiday allowance with bank holidays given in addition. The government updated this so that workers that don't work on Mondays don't lose out.

Thanks have advised they speak to the payroll company who will hopefully give the right number of days.

You're right eeyore12.

Statutory holiday is 5.6 weeks, so based on working 3 days a week, you're entitled to 16.8 days holiday (rounded up to 17 for ease).
