This week buddy was asked: Is it true that the statutory minimum holiday entitlement is set to increase to 28 days?

Buddy says: The government has announced a second public consultation on plans to increase the statutory minimum holiday entitlement to include bank holidays. This would mean that the entitlement would increase from the current 20 days per year (in the case of a worker who works 5 days a week) to 24 days on 1 October 2007, with a further increase to 28 days to follow on 1 October 2008.

Employer information: The Government estimates these changes will affect 5.9 million workers, and cost businesses £4 billion per year. An initial consultation took place between June and September 2006, in which the Government declared an intention to increase the entitlement in two stages and sought views on when to introduce the second stage. The second consultation will close on 13 April 2007.
