Calculate your UK statutory holiday entitlement for shift work. Perfect for night shift workers with 8, 10, or 12-hour shifts.
The Working Time Regulations entitle all workers to 5.6 weeks of paid holiday per year. For full-time workers (5 days/week), this equals 28 days. For shift workers with irregular patterns, it's calculated in hours.
For 12-hour shift workers: 5.6 weeks × average hours per week = annual entitlement in hours. Then divide by your shift length to see how many complete shifts off you get.
When calculating holiday pay, your night shift premium should be included if it's a regular part of your pay. This is UK law following recent court cases.
