Calculating Holidays for Irregular Part Time Employee

Greetings,

I am trying to work out my partner's holiday calculations, as I don't believe it is currently correct.

Scenario:
  • Irregular Part Time Worker, who worked every week in 2016 except 2 weeks
  • 1460 hours worked (does not include time on annual leave)
  • 3 different rates of hourly payment (increases) throughout year
  • Public Holidays where worked were paid at double time, other public holidays have not received Payment / Extra Holiday
What is the correct way of calculating the holidays due? The payments due? If one was using the 8% method, how do you determine how many hours are in the 4-week maximum? Do you roll the calculations forward on a weekly basis?
Regarding the Public Holidays how do you calculate a 1/5 of the normal weekly wages?

I am aware of the 3 different methods for calculating leave entitlement but the Working Time Act doesn't seem to provide clear details for this situation. Any pointers gratefully received.

Hi, this document from the HSE might be useful. On page 9 they tell you how they calculate Annual Leave for part time workers.
