Your entitlement

126 hours

How it's worked out

22.5 hours/week × 5.6 statutory weeks = 126 hours/year

Audit note

Holding entitlement in hours is the fairest method when shift lengths vary — deduct the actual length of each day you take off. Part-timers can't be capped below their weekly-hours × 5.6 figure.

Frequently asked questions

How much holiday for 22.5 hours a week?
Twenty-two and a half hours a week earns 126 hours of paid holiday a year on the statutory minimum (22.5 × 5.6). Against a 37.5-hour full-time week that's exactly half.
Is 22.5 hours the same as three days?
Often yes — three 7.5-hour days. But because you're paid and accrue in hours, the calculator stays accurate even if you work those hours over a different number of days.
How does half-time compare in days?
Half of a 25-day plus 8 bank holiday (264-hour) full-time allowance would be 132 hours. Set the statutory-weeks or annual figure to reflect any allowance above the statutory 5.6 weeks.
