Vacation Leave Entitlement
An employee with a 40-hour working week is entitled to 240 hours of paid annual leave; that is, 192hrs basic leave entitlement + 48hrs, in lieu of the 6 Public Holidays that fall on weekends. This is calculated on the basis of a 40-hour working week, and an 8-hour working day. If the average normal hours (excluding overtime) calculated over a period of 17 weeks is below or exceeds 40 hours per week, the vacation leave entitlement in hours should be adjusted accordingly, as provided for in the Organisation of Working Time Regulations. When an employee is in employment for less than 12 months, s/he shall be entitled to a proportionate amount of annual leave.
Unless otherwise agreed to in any applicable collective agreement, the employer may utilize up to the equivalent in hours of twelve working days from the annual leave entitlement for the purposes of any type of shutdown.
