How much holiday do you have in a mini job?

This depends on how much holiday has been agreed. The agreement is in your employment contract. You are entitled to the statutory minimum number of holiday days or the holiday specified in your collective agreement.


Please note: these regulations refer to 5 or 6-day weeks (working days). If you work fewer days a week, you also have fewer days of holiday.


Your employer cannot force you to take holiday at a time when you are not working anyway. Example: if you only work from Monday to Wednesday, your employer cannot demand that you take holiday on Thursday and Friday.  Because you wouldn’t be working then anyway. If a public holiday falls on a Monday, for example, you do not have to make up the hours on another day.
