Our last Holidays Act Special Webinar was held in 2022, and much has changed since then.

The Holidays Act 2003 sets out a range of leave entitlements for employees, but its complexity continues to create major challenges for payroll. Misunderstandings or mistakes can expose businesses to serious risk.

All participants will receive comprehensive notes, including practical examples to support understanding.

• What payments are included/excluded from taxable gross earnings in holiday pay calculations
