paying overtime in holiday pay

[netblindpaul]

I don't know Sintra, this was what was in a newsletter thing I had a couple of days ago, it was I admit, before the case was concluded.
I have had nothing since then, I don't know the details of the case only the info that was sent to me.

So this new ruling wouldn't apply to a person on a 37.5 hour contract working 70+ hours per week.

I hope it does !

Your holiday entitlement is based on how many days/hours you work a week by employment law https://www.gov.uk/calculate-your-holiday-entitlement/y
So if you work overtime you will be entitled to more holidays. (thats how i understand it anyway)
Some firms give low hours contracts 16 to 20 and therefore low holiday entitlement and expect the workers to work 40 hrs.
zero hours contracts are based on what you work in the last 12 week.

Some firms give extra holidays than the statuary minimum wonder if they will be affected ? Suppose we will soon find out

You forget the 9% NI that I pay too, and why do you think I charge £30/hr?

If your not happy with your rate then raise it, as a self employed person you shouldn't care less about what holiday pay an employee of another company gets, you make your own money, come on man whats your outgoings got to do with what other people get?
