If you are a part-time employee, you are entitled to a pro rata amount of holiday calculated on the full-time entitlement of 28 days per annum.
The amount of holiday you can take every year must be specified in your contract of employment. If you leave your employment, any unused holiday should be included with your final pay and calculated at the basic rate of your salary.
Apart from the above, there are no legal requirements governing holiday leave. All other aspects of your holiday should be set out either in your contract of employment or in a staff handbook, and these are likely to include when your leave year starts (generally either the beginning of January or from the first day of your employment), whether you can carry holiday over from one leave year to the next, and what procedures you should follow for booking your holiday.
