Calculate the accrued annual leave of a worker in the first year of employment
Key points
During the first year of a worker's employment, the amount of annual leave that they may take at any time is limited to the amount of leave that they have accrued at that time.
There are statutory rules on how to calculate accrual of annual leave in the first year of employment, which apply unless there is a contractual arrangement to the contrary.
The legislation also covers how to round up entitlement where the calculation of accrued leave does not result in an exact number of days.
