How much holiday am I entitled to? Almost all UK workers get 5.6 weeks of paid holiday a year. For someone working 5 days a week that's 28 days — the legal maximum an employer must give. Work fewer days and you get 5.6 × your days per week. For irregular or part-year hours, holiday builds up at 12.07% of the hours you actually work.
Holiday FAQs
Can my employer include bank holidays?
Yes. The 5.6 weeks (28 days for full-time) can include the 8 UK bank holidays — there's no automatic right to take them off on top.
