Hi Lorraine

As long as you are Schedule D, there iis a set rate. As your PM. It is a percentage of your daily rate. I can’t remember what it is. I just say Schedule D because I don’t think you get holiday pay, if you are a limited company.

yes I've been getting 10.77% I believe - should we definitely be getting 12.07%

Hey Lorraine,

We pay 12.07% in hospitality industry

Reda

10.77. I keep getting 12.07 rejected by Prod Co’s.

We are paying 12.07% since June 2024. PACT advises that it’s down to the discretion of the production: https://www.pact.co.uk/resource/holiday-pay-q-a.html

I asked this of my production manager a while back and this is how she explained it:

So, the new increase is only for part time and adhoc workers. As it stands, unless you are a part time/adhoc worker (working less than 5 consecutive days a week) you would not fall under this category.

Hope that helps!

Sky pay 12.07

The legislation appears to have changed in April 2024 and the UK Government site quotes 12.07%

Hi Lorraine, Little Door paying 10.77% although their payslip calculations are less and I'm asking...

It depends on what type of worker you are. If you are paid as an irregular hours or part year worker then HP should be 12.07% but what you will come up against is a rate offered inclusive of HP especially in drama companies. If you are a regular hours worker either full or part time then the company can still use 10.77%.

I have experienced both the lower rate and higher rate in the last few months!

I’ve had both in the last 12 months.

Since the date this new rate came in last year, they have to pay 12.07%. x

The higher rate of 12.07

Hi, it has changed to 12.07

A lot of companies still pushing back on it and using 10.77, emboldened by PACT still disagreeing with BECTU.

@LorraineO'Keeffe I’ve had both, some companies sticking to their guns at 10.77 and some listening to govt. guidance and paying the 12.07

@LorraineO'Keeffe it should be the higher rate. Pact on behalf of Equity have agreed 12.07% for those workers, and so why is TV any different? I know BECTU feel very strongly that Pact are wrong and if you’ve got any questions I would contact them.

I have found it varies between companies. But, mathematically, it should be 12.07. The lower rate means that if you work the maximum weeks in a year (46.4 weeks) and get paid 28 days holiday (making it up to a full 52 weeks), your pay will be less than 52 times your weekly rate. Only at 12.07% do you get a full 52 weeks pay.

@Benjamin Polya
Its only mathematically correct if the employer only pays for days worked. No payment should be made when a bank holiday occurs or the worker takes holiday during the contract period.
