Hi all,how many days holiday should we (full time farm workers)should be getting.
have been reading up on it but it’s a little bit confusing wot with bank holidays and overtime and all that.
Some far away place that you never quite reach!! The issue with TOIL is you can accumulate so much that it’s not possible to use it allWheres lieu?
Which equates to 29 days in my calculations so one day extra in the first two years and eight extra thereafter which is pretty good.Ours get 21 days plus all bank holidays for first two years of service rising to 28 days thereafter.
Overtime can be paid or time off taken in lieu.
Bank holidays dont have to be paid by law IIRC?I read it as 28 + BH after 2 years but might be wrong (often am )
Thats fine so long as it equates to the legal minimum or more .With some employers you accrue holidays based on the number of hours you work rather than having a fixed number of holidays.
Thats pretty good i would say, more than my engineering day job after 2 yearsWhich equates to 29 days in my calculations so one day extra in the first two years and eight extra thereafter which is pretty good.
Near PolperroWheres lieu?
Probably a spelling mistake, Looe is in Cornwall or as I’ve just found out, near ChirkWheres lieu?
Depends wether you’re employed or a farmerDo weekends off class as holidays?
A guy I deal with in an ag related industry was conducting a job interview one day, interview was going well, was likely to give the lad the job when he asked how many days sick leave he was entitled to per year.These days the employed got their base holiday days, weekends, bank holidays then they add on the sick days , covid pinged days , used furlonged up so all on all easier to ask : when do you work possibly???
Or on flip side ,how many years and kids later some get away with too ?????A guy I deal with in an ag related industry was conducting a job interview one day, interview was going well, was likely to give the lad the job when he asked how many days sick leave he was entitled to per year.
