Annual holidays
Most workers - whether part-time or full-time - are legally entitled to 5.6 weeks' paid annual leave. Employers can set the times of the year that leave needs to be taken and workers must give the employer notice when they want to take leave.

Employers may sometimes state that a contract of employment is permanent subject to the completion of a satisfactory probationary period.
