For example, to work out someone's holiday entitlement in days, multiply the number of days they work each week by 5.6. If they work 5 days a week, their statutory paid holiday is 28 days a year (5 x 5.6).

The easiest way to work out the number of days annual allowance you should take your number of days worked a week and multiply this number by 5.6 So if you work 5 days per week then multiply this by 5.6 5 × 5.6 = 28 (28 days holiday).
