Calculate the pro rata annual leave and salary for part time employees
To calculate pro rata salary and leave you need the notional FTE salary and the notional FTE leave entitlement expressed either in hours or in days.
It is potentially unfair as an employee working part time, say, 4 days of a 5 day week, Monday to Thursday would get 22 days leave, i.e. 16 days pro rata leave, using 2021 as an example would get + 6 bank holidays that fall on work days. An employee who works Tuesday to Friday again using 2021 as an example would only get 19 days leave, i.e. 16 days + 3 bank holidays that fall on work days. It is potentially unlawful as the employee who doesn’t work Monday would accrue leave at 10.05% per day compared to a full time employee who would accrue leave at 12.07% per day, in breach of the Part Time Workers no Less Favourable Treatment Regulations.
