Q: I work part time , don't collect dole or any other sort of welfare, I'm still not due to pay any tax just yet . My employer said I'm not entitled to holiday pay because I work part time, also I am on the books. He is not happy about me looking for holiday pay which I don't understand...surely it's not coming out of his pocket ?...can anyone help me with this question please.
A: Part time workers are entitled to paid annual leave. Your boss probably just doesnt know that or hopes that you dont know it. You can read about it here and show this to your boss, http://www.employmentrights.ie/en/media/Holidays%20Txt.pdf
