Your entitlement

196 hours

How it's worked out

35 hours/week × 5.6 statutory weeks = 196 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 35 hours a week?
Thirty-five hours a week earns 196 hours of paid holiday a year on the statutory minimum (35 × 5.6). In many offices 35 hours is itself the full-time week.
Is 35 hours full-time?
It often is — a 9-to-5 with an hour for lunch is 35 hours. If it's your workplace's full-time week, 196 hours is simply your full entitlement, equal to 28 seven-hour days.
Does the 28-day cap apply?
The 28-day cap only limits people working more than five days a week. At 35 hours over five days you're unaffected, so you receive the full 5.6 weeks.
