Can someone help me work out Annual Leave please?

If I employed someone (a nanny) to work 12 hours a week, term time only, how would I work out her annual leave entitlement?

I have looked on directgov but it simply states that they are updating information for term time only positions.

Thank you.

I would work it as a standard pro-rata calculation, but don't know if this would be correct.

So, standard entitlement is 28 days for full time workers (say 35 hours per week).
They'd be entitled to 28 x (12/35) days as a prorata worker.
If they only worked term time - at a guess 35 weeks out of 52, they'd be entitled to 28 x (12/35) x (35/52).

You could check with ACAS?

Assuming that term time = 39 weeks/year; 12 hours a week over how many days? You could work it out on an hours basis if you'd like:

Stat minimum = 5.6wks pro-rated
5.6 wks = 12 x 5.6 = 67.2hours / 52 x 39 = 50.4 hours/year

Depending on how they work the 12 hours will help you to determine how many days this equates to
eg 4 hours x 3 days each week will mean (50.4/4) 12.6 days (round to 12.5 days where a 'day' = 4 hours)
or 6 hours x 2 days each week will mean (50.4/6) 8.4 days (round to 8.5 days where a 'day' = 6 hours)

Hope this helps!
