Annual leave
Eligibility
You are entitled to paid annual leave if you meet the following conditions:
- You are covered under Part IV of the Employment Act.
- You have worked for your employer for at least 3 months.
Your annual leave entitlement depends on how many years of service you have with your employer. Your year of service begins from the day you start work with your employer.
| Year of service | Days of leave |
|---|---|
| 1st | 7 |
| 2nd | 8 |
| 3rd | 9 |
| 4th | 10 |
| 5th | 11 |
| 6th | 12 |
| 7th | 13 |
| 8th and thereafter | 14 |
If an employee begins work on 14 Mar 2013, the annual leave entitlementwill be calculated as follows:
| Period of employment | Completed months of service | Annual leave entitlement |
|---|---|---|
| 14 Mar 2013 to 13 Mar 2014 | 12 | 7 days (1st year) |
| 14 Mar 2014 to 13 Mar 2015 | 12 | 8 days (2nd year) |
| 14 Mar 2015 to 13 Mar 2016 | 12 | 9 days (3rd year) |
If you have worked less than a year (pro-rated leave)
If you have worked for your employer for at least 3 months, your annual leave entitlement is pro-rated based on the number of full months you have worked.
This entitlement applies even if you are still on probation.
How pro-rated annual leave is calculated ?
Annual leave is pro-rated using this formula:
- (No. of completed months of service / 12 months) x No. of days of annual leave entitlement
- You should not include periods of approved no-pay leave when calculating annual leave entitlement.
- If the fraction of a day is less than one-half, round it down; if it is half or more, round it up to one day.
14 Mar 2014 to 13 Jul 2014 = 4 completed months
The period from 14 to 31 Jul 2014 is disregarded as it is not a completed month.
2. If an employee has completed 4 months of service and is entitled to 10 days of leave a year, the pro-rated annual
leave is:
(4 completed months / 12 months) x 10 days of leave = 3.33 days
Rounded down to 3 days as the fraction is less than 0.5.
