You are allowing your employees to either buy or sell a number of days of their holiday allocation.
Holiday buyback example
If an employee’s current holiday entitlement is 25 days per year and they choose to buy 3 days of additional holiday their new entitlement will be 28 days. If an employee chooses to buy holiday there will be a reduction in their salary to the value of the number of days holiday they have bought.
Selling holidays example
If an employee’s current holiday entitlement is 25 days per year and they choose to sell 3 days of additional holiday their new entitlement will be 22 days. If an employee chooses to sell holiday there will be an increase in their salary to the value of the number of days holiday they have sold. Please note that holiday exchange cannot be used to allow employees to reduce their holiday allowance below the statutory minimum.
