Temporary staff holiday pay

mkmanson1

My HR department want to change the way we pay temps by adding thr 12.07% holiday pay to their hours and roll up their hourly rate to include it. I have said this is against the law and we have to ensure they take holidays. Can anyone point me in the right direction for some current legislation on this please.

thanks

I add 12.07% to our term time only staff (paid for 39 weeks spread into 12 equal portions) but different circumstances, we got the rate from direct.gov
