You need to establish the amount of holiday in your Zero Hours contract. This can be as pro rata to your working hours and needs to apply to the right to pay or time off for public or stautory holiday. Its exactly the same as a 'normal' contract.....again if you are uncertain you need to obtain advice from your trade union or from the Citizen Advice Bureau. The important fact is that even on a Zero Hour contract, you are entitled to holiday pay and sick pay and other employee benefits.
With peace and consolation hath dismist, And calm of mind all passion spent...
