Amazingly I am being given a choice of what hours I would like for a new admin role.
I have asked for part time (24 hours per week) term time only (39 weeks). But I was also considering 18 hours per week all the year round. I thought the pay would be equal for both when I tried to work it out myself but now I’ve seen a draft contract for the term time option it says I’ll get 17% holiday pay on top which I wasn’t expecting. That works out better - doesn’t it? I get 13 weeks off and a top up. If I work all the year round, I think I would get paid holiday, but only for 5-6 weeks.
Can someone who is good at maths help me work it out and confirm I am getting the best deal or whether it is in fact equal please?
