An overview of the changes to Holiday and Holiday Pay that started on 1 January 2024 and picked up pace from April 2024.

As well as outlining the main changes we shall tackle thorny issues including:

• How do you extinguish carry-over?
• What is Normal Pay for Holiday Pay and does it include annual bonus payments?
• Who will be an irregular hours worker?
• Who will be a part-year worker and does the definition cover term-time workers on annual pay?
• If irregular hours / part-year workers accrue holiday in hours then how many hours of work is a day of holiday?
• How does an irregular hours / part-year worker accrue holiday when sick?
• Do old rolled up holiday pay rules apply to other workers?
